There are some in Poland.
One was about a princess named Wanda, who, it seems, was a dotter of legendary Krak, the founder of Krakow. Anyway, she was a great ruler, all her servants loved her. However, she was also young and very beautiful and one day, a diplomat of some German prince came and demanded marriage with her. He threatened that if she doesn't marry his master, He will attack her duchy and destroy it.
And so, to save her nation and not to marry a German,
young princess jumped to Vistula and killed herself.

I wonder if someone will come up with a true legend, not some crap out of a racist mind.

One of my country's legends says that when some monk called bonifatius went out to convert paganist Polish heathens who ate their babies to neighbour loving and prosperous christianity, he was murdered for his belief.
While I'm not a friend of the catholic church, I just deny murder for religious reasons. Does a nation become better with a new religion?

Once, there was a prince named Popiel. He was a mean od fellow, and eventually paid for his deeds, as mice revolted against him and started chaising him. In the end, he sheltered in a castle on an island, in Kruszwica. But eventually they found a way in and have eaten him alive.
A part of the story is about his wife that encouraged him to getting rid of the council of elders and eventually they poisoned them all during a feast.
To not say that all Germans in Polish legends are evil, I shoud say that once, a Major Polish prince and later king of Poland, Przemyslaw, married Ludgarda, a German (of Polabian descent, though), princess of Meklemburg. It seems it was a marriage of love, but as Ludgarda could not give Przemyslaw a son, he grew tired of her, and once, when he's left the castle, she was suffocated by her own servants - perhaps they did what they were told to do.
This story became legendary as well among the people of Major Poland.
Another part of the mentioned legend: It was under Popiel's reign, when two travelers came. Popiel mistreated them, but they found shelter in a house of a simple peasant named Piast, who was just making a traditional feast named postrzyzyny. The travelers made a couple of miracles, and when the evil Popiel was killed, Piast became the king.
