Polish crown jewels information


Replicas of the Crown of Bolesław I the Brave, the royal orb and sceptre used for the coronation of Stanisław II August in 1764
Regalia of King Augustus III

The only surviving original piece of the Polish crown jewels (Polish: Polskie klejnoty koronne) from the time of the Piast dynasty is the ceremonial sword Szczerbiec. It is currently on display along with other preserved royal items at the Wawel Royal Castle Museum in Kraków.

Several royal crowns were made, including several during the 16th Century, a "Hungarian Crown", a "Swedish Crown" used by the Vasa kings, and others that were subsequently lost or destroyed. The crown regalia used by the Saxon kings, and some remainders of older Polish monarchs which were appropriated by king Augustus II, also the Elector of Saxony; like a cup of Queen Jadwiga so-called roztruchan, and the magnificent scale armour, so-called karacena, of King John III Sobieski[1][2][3][4] are today on display in the Grünes Gewölbe and the Rüstkammer in Dresden, Germany.
