Crown of Spain
The Spanish Royal Crown may refer to either the heraldic crown, which does not exist physically, or the crown known as the "corona tumular", a physical crown used during Spanish royal proclamation ceremonies since the 18th century. It is never worn by the monarch.
The last time the "corona tumular" was used at a public ceremony was in the during the swearing-in of King Felipe VI on 19 June 2014 after the abdication of his father, King Juan Carlos I. Since July 2014, the royal crown and sceptre are on permanent public display for the first time ever in the so-called Crown Room at the Royal Palace of Madrid.
History.
The last Spanish monarchs being solemnly crowned were Juan I of Castile (1379), Fernando I of Aragon (1414), and Leonor of Navarre (1479). Joan III of Navarre was crowned as late as 1555, although she ruled Navarre beyond the Pyrenees.
After the 17th century, all Spanish monarchs have taken the royal rank by proclamation and acclamation before the Church, and since the 18th century, before the , although the royal crown has been present in these ceremonies.
The current king, Felipe VI, was proclaimed King of Spain on 19 June 2014, having the following symbols displayed in front of him:
National jewels vs. private jewels.
The jewels exhibited solemnly in the royal proclamations and other collections traditionally linked to the Spanish Crown, such as the Treasure of the Dauphin –currently displayed at the Museo del Prado– or others kept in different places, are part of the National Heritage managed by Patrimonio Nacional.
The jewels worn by members of the Spanish royal family today, such as headbands, tiaras, necklaces, decorations, etc., are strictly private, are not linked to any institution, and are considered the personal property of the corresponding member –be it the King as a private person, or some other relative–. In that condition, they were taken with them into exile in 1931 –with the proclamation of the Second Spanish Republic– and stayed out of Spain until 1975. Of special relevance is the collection, for the exclusive use of the Queen on solemn occasions.
