In this episode, Lucas and Luna explore the fascinating history of the Holy Crown of Hungary, the Szent Korona, which has crowned kings for nearly a millennium. They trace its journey from the coronation of Stephen I in 1000 to its dramatic escapes and eventual return to the Hungarian Parliament. Discover the crown's mysterious origins, the significance of its crooked cross, and the debates over its authenticity. Along the way, they discuss the crown's role in Hungarian identity, its use by Habsburg rulers, and its symbolic power even in the modern republic. This is a story of reverence, theft, war, and the enduring bond between a nation and its most sacred object.
