Martynas Go?tautas
(Polish:
Marcin Janowicz Gas(z)tołd
or
Marcin Gasztołdowicz
; Ukrainian:
Га?штовт Марти?н ?ва?нович
; 1428,
Vilnius
? c. 1483, Vilnius) was a nobleman from the
Grand Duchy of Lithuania
of the
Go?tautai
family. He was the
Grand Marshal of Lithuania
,
Voivode of Navahrudak
(1464?1471), first
Voivode of Kiev
(1471?1475) and
Voivode of Trakai
(1480?1483).
[1]
He was a servant to King
Casimir IV Jagiellon
, and was a founder of
Tykocin
monastery and the
Dominican
monastery and church in
Trakai
.
Residents of
Kiev
resented the appointment of a
Roman Catholic
as voivode and refused to let him in.
[2]
In exchange, Kiev acquired the status of a voivodeship, equal to that of
Trakai
and
Vilnius
and the subsequent voivodes were
Orthodox
nobles.
Martynas was a son of
Jonas Go?tautas
, carrying his first name as a
patronymic
, and father of
Albertas Go?tautas
.
