Scotland is celebrating the recent coronation of British monarch King Charles III with a day of festivities in the nation’s capital, Edinburgh
Known as the “Honours of Scotland,” the Scottish regalia are Britain’s oldest crown jewels. Parts of the Honours date back to around the early 16th century. The sword, however, is a recent commission. “The Elizabeth Sword” – named after the late Queen Elizabeth II – will be the new sword of state, replacing a sword given to James IV by Pope Julius in 1507, due to its fragility, according to the Scottish government.
Accompanied by Queen Camilla, Charles arrived at the cathedral in the royal procession in the state Bentley. Prince William and Catherine, known in Scotland as the Duke and Duchess of Rothesay, were in the royal Rolls-Royce. The Honours made their own separate journey to St. Giles’ from Edinburgh Castle for the service, accompanied by the King’s Body Guard for Scotland, the Royal Company of Archers and an honor guard of Armed Forces personnel.
