Zygmunt Tarło (c. 1561 or 1562 – 7 September 1628) was a Polish nobleman of the Tarło family, bearing the Topór coat of arms. He served as Chorąży of Przemyśl from 1606 and as castellan of Nowy Sącz from 1613.[1]

During his tenure as castellan, Tarło became a patron of the Catholic Church. In 1621 he was the first to propose establishing a monastery for the Franciscan Reformati in the Polish–Lithuanian Commonwealth, at Zakliczyn on the Dunajec; the friars arrived there on 19 June 1622, making it the first Reformati house in the Commonwealth.[2]

Family

He married Barbara Drohojewska in 1601.[3] Contemporary and later genealogical sources identify their children as Zygmunt Aleksander Tarło, Andrzej Tarło, and Teofilia Tarło.[1] He was buried in Żarki.[1]
