Following tradition, there were so many coronations with the precious Coronet. Right in the Middle-age, over to the Lombard kings, the Charlemagne coronation (800) and the Conrad of Lorraine (1093). Worth mentioning are the assured coronations of:

– Conrad III of Swabia, Henry IV’s nephew, opposing the emperor Lotharius, crowned in Monza, Saint Michael Church, 1128.

– Frederick I the “Barbarossa” crowned in Monza, 1158, during his second Italian campaign;

– Henry VI Hohenstaufen, son of the “Barbarossa”, crowned in Monza for his wedding with Costance of Sicily in 1186;

– Charles IV of Luxembourg, crowned in 1355 in the Saint Ambrose abbey, Milan;

– Charles V of Hapsburg, king of Spain and emperor of the Sacred Roman Empire, crowned in Bologna, 1530, by Pope Clement VII.

– Napoleon I Bonaparte, crowned in 1805, during the ceremony in the Duomo of Milan cried out: “God gave me this crown. He who dares it is asking for trouble”

– Ferdinand I of Austry crowned in 1838 king of Lombardy-Venetia in the Duomo of Milan.

None of the Savoias were crowned with the Iron Crown, although it was showed in Rome as royal insignia to the funeral ceremony of Victor Emanuel the II (1878), who had previously established in its honour the Chivalric Order of the Iron Crown, and also the funeral of Humbert I (1900), the Italian King murdered right here in Monza.
