Stone of Scone Leaves Edinburgh Castle for Coronation of King Charles III in London

The coronation of King Charles III will take place on May 6th at Westminster Abbey, featuring the Stone of Scone as a symbol of Scotland's monarchy. The 335-pound stone was transported from Edinburgh Castle to London under tight security, and the coronation will also include traditional elements such as the anointing of the new king with holy oil and the presentation of the royal regalia. The journey of the Stone of Scone is a reminder of the long and storied history of Scotland's monarchy.
