The Middelfart Crown (Danish: Middelfartkronen) is an early 16th-century bridal crown discovered in 1933 during construction work beneath the central marketplace in Middelfart, Denmark. It is now on display in the National Museum of Denmark.
The Middelfart Crown was discovered in 1933 when the cobbling of the central marketplace in Middelfart was being renewed. It was located in a small stone-clad cavity, possibly a former fireplace. It was found together with a necklace with a pendant reliquary cross. The cavity of the reliquary cross was empty.[1]
