Wizymir or Wysymir (także: Wizimierz) – postać legendarna, syn (lub wnuk) Lecha, legendarnego protoplasty Polaków. is a legendary figure in Polish mythology, described as the son (or grandson) of Lech, the legendary progenitor of the Polish people. According to a legend cited by the chronicler Marcin Bielski, Wizymir was ruthless toward the Danes, whose lands he sought to conquer in order to expand his territory all the way to the Baltic Sea. He succeeded in this campaign, seizing several Danish islands, including Rügen and Funen. He is then said to have crushed the warriors of the Danish king, Syward, leaving the Danes with only a tiny fraction of their conquered kingdom, while Syward was forced to regularly pay him tribute. To seal the treaty, Wizymir took the Danish king's children to his own court—his son Jameryk and his two daughters, whom he made his concubines. When Syward died, his son escaped captivity to claim the Danish throne. Upon taking power, he stopped paying tribute, which prompted Wizymir to launch another military expedition against Denmark.
