kronen
Kronen is the plural form of Krone, the German noun for crown. In historical contexts, Kronen has also referred to currency units in German-speaking lands, most notably in the Austro-Hungarian Empire, where the monetary unit was called Krone and the plural Kronen appears in many German-language sources. The kronen circulated as coins and banknotes across Cisleithania and Hungarian territories during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. After the empire’s dissolution in 1918, successor states adopted their own currencies, with some regions using korona/koruna forms or otherwise reorganizing monetary systems.
Beyond historical finance, Kronen is encountered as a surname and in the names of places or businesses
