Charles I
Charles I was crowned in Westminster Abbey in February 1626. For the first time ever at a coronation the anthem "I was glad" was sung, though, it would be the last time that the ancient coronation regalia were used. Charles reigned for 23 years until he was executed in 1649. Cromwell's Parliamentarians destroyed nearly all of the regalia and crowns: they removed and sold the precious stones and melted down the remaining metal.
Cromwell was declared England's Lord Protector in two ceremonies in Westminster Hall, in 1653 and 1657. For the latter the Coronation Chair was taken to the Palace of Westminster for the inauguration.
