Inside the Royal Vault where the body of the Queen's husband will be kept until the day she will also die.

Upon the Queen's death, the Prince's body will be removed and the two buried alongside each other in their final resting place

Located 15 feet below the St George's Chapel, it is designated a temporary space to place the dead. It can accommodate up to 81 bodies.

It has a vaulted stone roof resting on massive octagonal columns, which also support the ranges of stone shelves .

Among the bodies still kept there are those of George III., George IV., William IV., George V. Also buried in a vault in the Chapel is Prince Alemayehu of Ethiopia , the son of King Tewdros, who died at the age of 18.
