John III Sobieski

John III Sobieski (1629–1696) was born at Olesko to a Ruthenian voivode's family. He volunteered in 1648 to fight the Khmelnytsky Uprising.

He served through the Swedish Deluge and the wars against Muscovy and the Ottomans, rising to Grand Hetman of the Crown in 1668; his victory at Khotyn in 1673 made his name, and he was elected king in 1674.

In 1683 he led the Christian coalition that broke the siege of Vienna, earning the name Lion of Lechistan. His reign brought the Commonwealth stability after years of conflict. He died in 1696 and was buried at Wawel Cathedral.
