She was the daughter of King Lescon V, King of Poland. At the age of three she was betrothed to Coloman, the son of Andrew, King of Hungary, the brother of St. Elizabeth of Hungary. The couple were married when she came of age, but they lived together in perpetual virginity. After his death, she became a Poor Clare. Blessed Salome founded a hospital and Poor Clare monastery. Fourteen years after its founding, the Tartars became a danger. The Sisters moved to Zawichost, Poland, with their abbess, Agnes. All of the nuns and twelve Franciscan Friars were killed in 1259.
