Summary/Abstract: The main purpose of the paper is to take a closer look at the question of Stephen Báthory’s (Polish: Stefan Batory, Hungarian: Báthory István) studies in Padua. Stephen Báthory was the prince of Transilvania and next the king of Poland and Great Duke of Lithuania. In the first paragraphs the author reminds that since the end of the 18th century historians have taken it for granted that young Báthory studied in Padua. The author presents a number of sources and argues that we do not actually have any evidence that can support this conviction. At the end of his paper he explains what might be the cause of this misunderstanding.
