 This plan was actively supported by the Polish church, led by Borzysław, the archbishop of Gniezno (the successor of Jakub Swinka who died in 1314), and Gerward, the bishop of Kujawy (Włocławek).The decision about the coronation was ultimately made during two rallies of nobles and knights; the first was held from 20–23 June 1318 in Sulejow, where a special supplication was prepared with a request to the Pope, and the second on 29 June in Pyzdry.Bishop Gerward was sent to Avignon with the documents.
