Produktbeschreibung
The Holy Crown of Hungary also known as the Crown of Saint Stephen, appears to be the only secular crown today with the "holy" attribute; the Crown of Thorns is also known as the Holy Crown of Jesus, but is in a reliquary in Notre Dame Cathedral. The Hungarian coronation insignia consists of the Holy Crown, the sceptre, the orb, and the mantle. Since the twelfth century kings have been crowned with the still extant crown. The orb has the coat-of-arms of the Hungarian king Károly Róbert of Anjou (1310-1342); the other insignia can be linked to Saint Stephen. The Crown was bound to the Lands of the Crown of Saint Stephen, (sometimes the Sacra Corona meant the Land, the Carpathian Basin, but it also meant the coronation body, too). No king of Hungary was regarded as having been truly legitimate without being crowned with it. In the history of Hungary, more than fifty kings were crowned with it (the two kings who were not so crowned were Sigismund Johann II and Joseph II). It was first called the Holy Crown in 1256.
