The Queen's grave has been pictured for the first time, with her coffin finally at rest alongside her late husband Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh.

Her Majesty, Queen Elizabeth II, died on September 8 this year and has finally been interred in the King George VI Memorial Chapel.

She joins Prince Philip, George VI and Elizabeth, Queen Mother, inside of the Chapel which now houses four of the former Royal Family members.

A new black marble ledger has been inscribed with the name of Queen Elizabeth II added to the Belgian marble with brass lettering marking the final resting place of Her Majesty.

The Memorial Chapel, which now marks the final resting place of the Queen, her husband and parents, is a Royal Peculiar, meaning it is a chapel without a bishop or archbishop.

It still however owes its allegiance to that of the Sovereign, with the Dean and Canons of Windsor governing the unique religious building.

Many royal weddings and funerals have taken place inside of the chapel, including the wedding of The Earl and Countess of Wessex in 1999.

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex also attended the King George VI Memorial Chapel for their wedding in 2018.

More recently, the chapel played host to the funeral service of Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh, on April 17, 2021.

The Committal Service for Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth also took place in the Chapel just a few days ago on September 19, 2022.

A private interment service, which was attended by many members of the Royal Family, including newly-ascended King Charles III and his two sons, Prince Harry and Prince William, were in attendance.

The chapel sits within the walls of St George's Chapel in Windsor, and is now the final resting place of Her Majesty, Queen Elizabeth II.
