She was probably born near Palanga to a Lithuanian, Samogitian or Curonian[citation needed] magnate family.[1][2] The story of her marriage to Kęstutis became a romantic legend in Lithuania. Chronicles mention that Birutė was a priestess (Lithuanian: vaidilutė) and served the Pagan gods by guarding the sacred fire.[3][4][5] When Kęstutis heard of her beauty, he visited the shire and asked her to marry him. She refused because she had promised the gods to guard her virginity until her death.[6][7] Kęstutis then abducted her, and took her by force to Trakai where he threw a large wedding.[8][9] She and Kęstutis had three sons and three daughters. Vytautas, their first son, was born around 1350. This suggests that the marriage took place in 1349 or a bit earlier.[10][8]
