Local time On July 31, 2018 (Tuesday), the crown that was used by King Sweden / Carl IX and Princess Cristina of the 17th century was stolen from Strongens Cathedral in Stockholm. It was the two men who stealed, escaping with a white motor boat. He said he was not injured.

The stolen crown was once buried with the owner Carl IX and Princess Christina but was later excavated and stored in a locked glass case of the cathedral.

The cathedral is on the hill by Lake Mälaren, and the criminal put a motorboat on the lake side to a crime, and he said that he ran away on a boat soon after stealing the crown. As soon as the police report, helicopters and boats are running out for searching.


The stolen crown is arranged throughout the world via Interpol (ICPO: International Criminal Police Organization), so it is considered difficult for the casual to cash.

In Sweden, there is a case in which the crown and the scepter used in the funeral of the King and Johann III of the 16th century were stolen in the city of Västerås, Lake Malaren in 2013.


In this case, the stolen crown and the scepter were found in garbage bags thrown away by the highway a few days later.
