During the 15th and 16th centuries, Europe underwent significant changes, and Portugal was no exception. In a society medieval and modern, King D. Manuel I passed away in 1521, and his son and legitimate heir, Prince D. João, succeeded him. The time between D. Manuel I's funeral and D. João III acclamation ceremonies was tiny.
The ceremonies, organised according to each monarch's preferences, were significant events with political and religious implications. The ceremonies followed established traditions and rituals, and symbols of royal power were passed from one monarch to the next. In this conference, I will analyze these ceremonies, the practices and the symbols connected.
