Hungary Returns Child Armour of King Sigismund II Augustus to Poland
Hungary is returning the child armour of Polish King Sigismund II Augustus to Poland in the name of the friendship between the two countries, Prime Minister Viktor Orbán said in Krakow on Wednesday.
Presenting the armour at a ceremony at the Wawel Royal Castle, Orbán said “it was not an easy story” to decide who had rights to the artifact. “But after some time it became clear that the truth is on Poland’s side and this precious object belongs to them, though we, too, have become fond of it,” he said.
Hungary has returned a 16th-century boy king’s armour to Poland for Christmas, fixing a 100-year-old bureaucratic error and sealing the revival of the old alliance between the two countries.The
