King Sigismund I the Old, who ascended to the throne in 1507, was a sponsor of many artists, and begun a major project - under Florence architect Bartolommeo Berrecci - of remaking the ancient residence of the Polish kings, the Wawel Castle, into a modern Renaissance residence.
The crown was stolen from Wawel Castle by Prussian troops in October 1795 and found its place in the collection of the Hohenzollerns in Berlin.
