Isabella I of Castile and Ferdinand II of Aragon were married in Valladolid on October 19, 1469. This marriage resulted in the dynastic union of Aragon and Castile, and is considered the starting point of Spain's unity and greatness. The sword of the Catholic Monarchs is one of the most spectacular in Spanish History. It began a key period in Spanish History by promoting the creation of the Spanish nation and developing the modern state through incessant diplomatic and military activity.
The sword of the Catholic Monarchs (Royal Ceremonial Rapier) was used in solemn court ceremonies from the time of the Catholic Monarchs until the 18th century. It was the sword with which Kings Ferdinand and Isabella knighted Christopher Columbus after his return from the Conquest of America. In the Throne Room of the Royal Palace of Barcelona, Columbus was named "Admiral of the Ocean" and "Viceroy of the Indies."
