The Holy Crown of Hungary, also known as the Crown of Saint Stephen, served as the coronation crown for the Kingdom of Hungary from the 12th century onward. A king was not considered truly legitimate without being crowned with it. Over fifty Hungarian kings were crowned with the Holy Crown, the last being Charles IV in 1916. The cross atop the crown is attached roughly, protruding from the central enamel plaque of Christ. It was knocked crooked in the 17th century, likely due to improper storage in its chest. The cross remains in this slanted position and is always depicted as such.
