With Buda in Ottoman hands the government of the kingdom had to move somewhere safe, and in 1536 the diet made Pressburg the capital of Royal Hungary; the parliament sat there until 1848. From 1552 the Holy Crown itself was kept in the castle above the town, and the diet of 1608 fixed its place in the south-western tower — which is why that tower is called the Crown Tower to this day. Nineteen coronations followed in St Martin's Cathedral below, from Maximilian in 1563 to the last queen consort in 1830: eleven rulers and eight royal consorts, Maria Theresa among them in 1741. Each new king rode out to a mound heaped from earth carried in from every county of the kingdom and cut the air with a sword towards the four points of the compass, swearing to defend the country from every direction.Keď Budín padol do osmanských rúk, vláda krajiny sa musela presťahovať do bezpečia — a roku 1536 vyhlásil snem za hlavné mesto Kráľovského Uhorska Prešporok; uhorský snem tu potom zasadal až do roku 1848. Od roku 1552 sa na hrade nad mestom uchovávala samotná svätoštefanská koruna a snem roku 1608 jej určil miesto v juhozápadnej veži — preto sa dodnes volá Korunná veža. Dolu v meste, v Dóme svätého Martina, sa odohralo devätnásť korunovácií: od Maximiliána roku 1563 po poslednú kráľovnú manželku roku 1830, jedenásť panovníkov a osem kráľovských manželiek a manželov, medzi nimi roku 1741 aj Mária Terézia. Každý nový kráľ vyšiel na kopec navŕšený zo zeme dovezenej zo všetkých stolíc krajiny a šabľou seknul do štyroch svetových strán na znak toho, že bude krajinu brániť zo všetkých strán.
