Remembering History: King Edward's Chair, where English monarchs have been crowned for almost 1000 years. It was commissioned in 1296 by King Edward I to contain the coronation stone of Scotland — known as the Stone of Scone — which he had captured from the Scots who had kept it at Scone Abbey. The chair was named after Edward the Confessor, and was kept in his shrine of St Edward's Chapel at Westminster Abbey. The stone was recently returned to the Scots.
