10 Historic Royal Crowns from Around the World

The Crown. The very symbols of power, wealth, majesty and royalty. It was a shining signal to the mud-caked peasantry that here was a person who was above them and blessed from above. You can’t be the King without the Bling. Let’s take a closer look at 10 incredible crowns from history. I’ve selected this list based on their fame, historic importance, beauty, and their fascinating stories, like the power to kill Nazis. They span the globe and history, so let’s begin with the ancient diadems and work out way to the modern, eye-popping crown jewels. The Iron Crown of Lombardy, 300s (Italy) The Gold crowns of Silla, 400-600s (Korea) The Imperial Crown of the Holy Roman Empire, 962 The Crown of St. Wenceslas of Bohemia, 1346 The Imperial Crown of Russia, 1762 The Great Crown of Victory, 1782 (Thailand) The Kiani Crown of Iran, 1796 The Crown of Napoleon , 1804 (France) The Shripech Crown of Napal The Imperial State Crown of the United Kingdom, 1937
