Support for the creation of the installation of the Hungarian Holy Crown

The artist Gyula Elekes, director of the Foundation for Culture of Odorheiu Secuiesc, with the support of the Hungarian Heritage Committee and RC Odorheiu Secuiesc, created an enlarged copy of the Hungarian Holy Crown.

This is the second work, in which the artist used his previous experience to create a more robust version, constructed out of metal, easy to disassemble and assemble.

He created an enterable installation, allowing visitors to see the details of the crown from inside and out, creating a lasting experience as the sun shines through the transparent panels. Other curiosities can be found at the base of the crown.

Since its unveiling in August 2021, the installation of the Holy Hungarian Crown has traveled to many Székely towns and in Hungary, and has proven to be very popular, with Rotary clubs competing with each other to exhibit it in their own cities for a period of time.
