Royal Crypts and Burial Places

[Jim]

If William becomes King he would probably be buried in St. George's Chapel. As for the others more than likely the royal cemetery at Frogmore would be the place although they would be entitled to be buried where ever they chose. As for Beatrice, Eugenie and Zara it would probably depend on who they married as to where they would be buried.

Here is a very good link which goes into depth on the burial church of the Romanov's. www.fortunecity.com/victorian/hornton/890/Petersbourg/PeterPaul.html.

www.findagrave.com has good pictures of some of the grave of the Tsars. Look under royalty and then under romanov.

Funny story of the reburial of Stadholder Willem V. He died and was buried in England during the napoleontic wwars. Somewhere in the 20th century they reburied him in Delft. Queen Wilhelmina bluntly refused to attend the reburial as she referred to her anscastor as an 'idiot'.

Prince Willem V was buried in Braunschweig (near Hannover, Germany) and after more than 150 years reburied in Delft.

True, he died while he was visiting his daughter Louise (and was burried there). Slip of the pen, I think. He lived in London for a while before he settled at Schloss Oranienstein, Dietz.

I was just on the find a grave website looking at some Romanovs, and had to comment on the fabulous tombs of Tsar Alexander II and his wife. They are made out of some fancy stone, perhaps a type of gemstone, since I know Russia is famous for them. They really are worth a look!

Are there any photos of the inside of King George V1 Memorial Chapel on line? I've seen some in Majesty Magazine but can't seem to find any on the internet

Now I know that some BRF royals are buried at windsor castle but who is buried a frogmore, mostly Queen Victoria's family right? Oh and Westminster also have some royals buried there.
