King Charles' coronation is on May 6
After the death of Queen Elizabeth II, Charles became king without ceremony. At that time, the former Prince of Wales also sat on the throne with the name Charles III. However, Charles has not yet been crowned as king. King Charles III will be crowned next year i.e. May 6, 2023. The Guardian reported this information in a report on Tuesday (October 11) about Buckingham Palace.
According to Bitren's monarchy, becoming a crowned king has to go through certain steps. According to reports, King Charles III will be officially crowned at Westminster Abbey in London. The ceremony is said to reflect the modern-day role of the monarchy.
According to the report, the ceremony will be organized in a completely new style, keeping the tradition of the coronation ceremony of the past.
It is known that Charles will be anointed with holy oil at the coronation. The coronation ring will then be put on and he will receive the sceptre. Charles will then be crowned with St. Edward the Magnificent and will be blessed during the ceremony. Camilla will likewise be anointed with holy oil and crowned.
Among the jewels housed in the Tower of London, St. Edward's Crown is the middle jewel. It is the only one they wear during the coronation of a king or queen (not because it weighs 2.23 kilograms). While a royal wedding is not a state event, the inauguration is a state event. The government bears the cost of the event and the government decides on its guest list.
In a statement, Buckingham Palace said the investiture will take place at London's Westminster Abbey and will be officiated by the Archbishop of Canterbury. More details will be announced in due course, the statement said. It has been informed that strict security measures will be taken around the coronation.
Queen Elizabeth ascended the throne in 1952, but was not crowned until June 1953. For the past nine hundred years, the initiation ceremony has been held in London's Westminster Abbey. William the Conqueror was the first king to be inaugurated there. And Charles will be the 40th king.
King Charles III will be crowned in May 2023, almost 70 years after his mother Elizabeth II was crowned. And through this the reign of this new British king will begin.
According to the media, when Elizabeth II was crowned in 1953, more than 8,000 guests from 129 countries attended Westminster Abbey in central London. However, an unconfirmed source says that this time the number of guests will be reduced to 2,000.
The Duke of Norfolk, who is tasked with hosting the event as Earl Marshal, told the media a palace insider. He has been tasked with making the program simpler, shorter and more diverse.
It is said that a change will be noticed in the event. It is said that the people in charge of conducting the event will wear lounge suits instead of formal clothes on this day.
The new British monarch is also the monarch of 14 Commonwealth countries. Charles will become the oldest monarch in British history when he is crowned at the age of 74.
