Elsa at the Church of Arendelle
The Church of Arendelle is a Lutheran church. Since Arendelle is an absolute monarchy, the king or queen has all of the power, and the church is not in charge of the kingdom. Though the church does not hold political power, it still is responsible for religious events. The church is run by the Bishop, who maintains and keeps it in line. The church is located in the Arendelle Chapel, which is in the courtyard of The Castle of Arendelle.
History[]
The Church of Arendelle was used to host Elsa's coronation, and the ringing of its bells marked the start of the service. The church itself was not very large, seating only a few dozen patrons at a time.
Trivia[]
- The Bishop's Nordic prayer is "Sem hon heldr inum helgum eignum ok krýnd í þessum helga stað ek té fram fyrir yðr, Queen Elsa, of Arendelle, can be translated to "As she holds the holy properties and is crowned in this holy place, I present to you, Queen Elsa of Arendelle"[1]
- The two items that Elsa holds during her coronation are called the Orb and Scepter. The Orb represents Christ's dominion over the world, and the Scepter represents the power of the king or queen that will be used for good governance[2]
