Charlemagne Crowned: A Historical Moment in European History This striking image captures the momentous occasion of Charlemagne's coronation as Carolus Augustus, Emperor of the Romans, by Pope Leo III on Christmas Day, 800 AD. Charlemagne (742-814), already a renowned ruler of the Frankish kingdoms in modern-day France, had established a court at Aachen, but sought the imperial title and the legitimacy that came with it from the Pope in Rome. Charlemagne's journey to Rome was a significant milestone in European history. The coronation ceremony held on December 25, 800, marked the end of the Dark Ages and the beginning of the Middle Ages. It symbolized the political and cultural unity of Europe under one ruler, and solidified the relationship between the Church and the secular power. The image shows Charlemagne, dressed in imperial robes and crowned with the traditional laurel wreath and the imperial crown, being crowned by Pope Leo III. The Pope, wearing his papal tiara, holds the imperial orb and the scepter in his hands, symbolizing his role as the one who bestows the imperial title. The scene is set against the backdrop of a grand, ornate throne, surrounded by the high-ranking clergy and noblemen of the time. This photograph, taken from an original print from Mary Evans Prints Online, is a testament to the historical significance of Charlemagne's coronation and its impact on European history. It serves as a reminder of the political, cultural, and religious transformations that took place during this period, and the role of Charlemagne as a pivotal figure in shaping Europe's future.
