Sobiesław Szybkowski: Polish-Hungarian Relations between 1437 and 1490. A Short Introduction

XXV rest of Prussia was ruled by the Grand Masters of the Teutonic Knights who were Polish vassals.80 However, the Second Peace of Toruń was not confirmed by the Pope, which gave the Grand Masters a chance to annul it in a favourable political moment. Moreover, almost directly after the treaty came into force, Casimir Jagiellon had to deal with the problem of appointing the Bishop of Warmia. In 1467 Nicolaus von Tungen became the Bishop of Warmia without the king’s consent.81 This choice was confirmed by the Pope and Tungen kept his position despite the objections raised by the Polish king. During his conflict with Casimir, Tungen was backed by the Teutonic Knights and King Matthias, who was looking for allies against the Jagiellons. Already in 1474, the King of Hungary disclosed his alliance with Tungen when he ordered for the Bishop of Warmia to be included in the Wrocław armistice.82 Soon the Grand Master of the Teutonic Knights, Heinrich Reffle von Richtenberg, and from 1477 his successor, Martin Truchseß von Wetzhausen, joined the anti-Polish alliance. With papal support behind his back, he was openly trying to annul the Second Peace of Toruń to end the vassalage to Poland and to re-establish the autho­rity of the Teutonic Order over the whole of Prussia. Preoccupied with Prussia, Casimir Jagiellon could not deploy the Polish forces in the continuing conflict over the Bohemian throne or help his Habsburg allies in the war they waged with Corvinus. Therefore, the alliance which Matthias formed with the Bishop of Warmia and Martin Truchseß was definitely a significant diplomatic success. The conflict in Prussia ended in the so-called Priest war (“Pfaffenkrieg”) whi­ch lasted from 1478 to 1479.83 Even though there was no Hungarian military 80 Biskup, 1967. 703–709. 81 Kozłowski, Edward: Mikołaj Tungen.
