Charles I of Spain and V of the Holy Roman Empire, called "Caesar", is elected Holy Roman Emperor on the death of his grandfather Maximilian in 1519. Charles I of Spain and V of Germany was known in his time as "THE Emperor" since no king ever managed to gather under his command such an immense empire.
He retired to the Monastery of Yuste where he remained a year and a half in retreat, away from the cities and political life, and accompanied by the order of the Jerónimos who spiritually guided the monarch until his last days. On 21 September 1558 he died of malaria. The coffin of Carlos I is located in the Royal Crypt of the Monastery of El Escorial known as the Pantheon of the Kings.
It is one of the most spectacular swords in the history of Spain.
