Royal vault: Inside the burial chamber that houses 25 royals - who is buried there?

Queen Elizabeth II is making the journey to her final resting place after a celebration of her life at her state funeral at Westminster Hall.

Britain’s longest-reigning monarch, who was on the throne for 70 years, will be laid to rest at the King George VI memorial chapel at Windsor Castle.

She will not be buried in the royal vault, which is currently home to 25 members of the royal family.

The late Duke of Edinburgh will soon be relocated from the royal vault to King George VI chapel to lie with the late Queen, as well as her mother and father, King George VI, the Queen Mother and Princess Margaret.

The royal vault lies beneath St George’s Chapel in the Windsor grounds and has housed royals in their final place of rest since the 15th century.

Royals are traditionally lowered into the vault through an opening in the floor of St George’s Chapel.

Meanwhile, thousands of mourners lined the streets on Monday to bid farewell to the only Queen they have ever known following a service attended by 2,000 world leaders and members of royal families from across the world.

King Charles III led members of the royal family in a procession behind the coffin before the funeral and then again afterwards as her coffin was led to Wellington Arch.

The route was lined by members of the armed forces from Westminster Abbey to the top of Constitution Hill at the Commonwealth Memorial Gates before the King’s Troop, Royal Horse Artillery witnessed the departure of the coffin to Windsor.

A separate committal service will be held at St George’s Chapel in Windsor at 4pm followed by a private burial, conducted by the Dean of Windsor, and attended by the royal family at 7.30pm.
