The late Duke of Edinburgh, Prince Philip will be buried on Saturday in the Royal Vault.
The tiny chapel houses the remains of the Queen's father George VI, her mother the Queen Mother and sister Princess Margaret. It is inscribed with"George VI" and"Elizabeth" in gold lettering and accompanied by their years of birth and death. On Saturday, the Queen and close members of her family will gather privately after the funeral as the duke's coffin is interred in the Royal Vault - a burial place set beneath St George's Chapel - for the time being.The Royal Vault at Windsor was created between 1804 and 1810 for George III, who died in 1820 and is one of three kings buried there.
The princess wanted to be cremated because she found the alternative royal burial ground at Frogmore in Windsor Great Park too"gloomy".
