description The coronation ceremonial of the Polish kings reflects the medieval union of the Church and state. The coronation was, therefore, not only a state ceremony but also an ecclesiastical one. It was performed by the archbishop in the cathe­dral in the presence of the assembled Church and through the coronation the new ruler was involved in the mission of the Church. It should also be noted that the formulary used during the coronation was built on theological foundations. Thanks to the coronation, which made the king God’s anointed, the ruler gained a special position in the state and the Church.
