Representatives of the royal palace did not provide details on the process of observing traditions and processions. The copper inscription on the stone is known to read “George VI 1895-1952 / Elizabeth 1900-2002” in the first two lines, followed by a star with garter belt, and then “Elizabeth II 1926-2022 / Philip 1921-2021” in the two lower lines.
Queen Elizabeth’s sister Princess Margaret is also buried in a chapel at Windsor Castle in west London.
Elizabeth died on 8 September at Balmoral Castle, her summer residence in the Scottish Highlands, after 70 years on the throne. Her son Charles became king.
Previously, Cursor reported that Buckingham Palace featured the famous red mailbox in the office of King Charles III.

The British king is depicted at the table. He leaned against the box and stared at the documents they contained. In the background is a photograph of Charles’ deceased parents, Queen Elizabeth and Prince Philip.
