Prince Janusz Radziwill (1579-1620) was a Polish szlachcic. Podczaszy of Lithuania since 1599, Castellan of Wilno since 1619 and Starost borysowski.
Janusz expanded the already immense family fortune through his first marriage to Zofia Olelkowicz Słucka on October 1, 1600, who, at her deathbed in 1612, left him a huge estate, including seven castles and palaces and some thirty-two villages. He later married again, with Elisabeth Sofie von Brandenburg on March 27, 1623 in Berlin.
It was during Janusz life that the interests between the Radziwłł family and the state (Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth, or Rzeczpospolita) began to drift apart, as Radziwiłłs seeked to increase their wealth and power, disregarding the public good and putting their dynastic interests overinterests of the country.
Just like his father, Janusz I took part in a military campaign against Swedes in Livonia. Unhappy with the lack of material rewards in appreciation of his skillful involvement in that campaign, however, he voiced his opposition against King Zygmunt III Vasa by joining in 1606 Zebrzydowski Rokosz and becoming on of its leaders. This confederatio, an armed and legal rebellion, was aimed at stopping the king's plans of strenghtening his dynasty and powers by introducing the hereditary monarchy, collecting additional taxes and creating a larger standing army.
