Holy crown of Hungary

The crown and image of the holy crown are everywhere in Hungary. This crown is on the Margaret island bridge, I was stuck in traffic and thought it would make a good and different Blip.
I've seen the actual crown its in the Hungarian parliament, which is a pretty cool place, if you turn up with a European passport they'll give you a free tour, can't see this happening in the UK.
The cross on the top of the crown is unusually a true cross and not the usual reliquary double barred cross as favoured by Hungary. The other thing is the cross is bent, they think the crown was probably dropped :-)
