St Edward's Crown leaves Tower of London ahead of Coronation
The St Edward's Crown has been removed from The Tower of London to be resized for The King ahead of The Coronation .
The historic centrepiece of The Crown Jewels was Taken Away to allow for its modification before The Ceremony on 6 May, Buckingham Palace said.
The Movement of The Crown was kept secret until its safe delivery. Its current location has not been divulged.
A version of it has been used during the coronations of English and British monarchs since the 13Th Century .
This St Edward's Crown was made for King Charles II in 1661, as a replacement for the medieval crown that was melted down after The Execution of his father in 1649.
The original is thought to date back to Edward The Confessor , the 11Th Century royal saint who was the penultimate Anglo-Saxon king of England.
It is the 1661 St Edward's Crown that appears in The Royal coat of arms of the United Kingdom , the Royal Mail logo and in badges of The British armed forces.
In a statement on Saturday, Buckingham Palace said: " St Edward's Crown, the historic centrepiece of The Crown Jewels, has been removed from The Tower of London to allow for modification work to begin ahead of The Coronation on Saturday 6 May 2023. "
The Ceremony will take place in Westminster Abbey , eight months after the monarch's accession and the death of Queen Elizabeth Ii .
It is understood The Ceremony will include the same core elements of the traditional service, which has retained a similar structure for More Than 1,000 years, while also recognising The Spirit of 21St Century Britain.
However, The Coronation is expected to be on a smaller scale and shorter, with suggestions that it could last just an hour - Queen Elizabeth Ii 's lasted about Three Hours .
It is also expected to be more inclusive of multi-faith Britain than in The Past , but will nonetheless be an Anglican service, with the Queen Consort being crowned alongside Charles Iii .
Guest numbers will be reduced from the some 8,000 of 1953 to about 2,000, with peers expected to wear suits and dresses instead of ceremonial robes, and A Number of rituals, such as the presentation of gold ingots, not being performed.
