The late Queen has completed her final journey and reunited with her beloved Prince Philip at St. George's Chapel in Windsor on Monday 19 September.

Following the state funeral earlier in the day, Her late Majesty Queen Elizabeth II's coffin was taken to Windsor Castle in a new state hearse for the committal service.

A congregation of 800 people including King Charles III, 73, the Royal Family, a realm of prime ministers, governors-general and mourners from the Queen's household from past and present gathered together for the historic moment.The Queen's coffin descended into the Royal Vault as the Dean of Windsor read Psalm 103, ending with the traditional words: "Go forth upon thy journey from this world, O Christian soul." However, it was later retrieved with that of her husband Prince Philip's to be buried again in the King George VI Memorial Chapel.The chapel, which was built as an annexe behind the North Quire Aisle of St George’s in 1969, houses the remains of the Queen’s father George VI, her mother the Queen Mother and sister Princess Margaret.

The Queen's casket was interred with the Grenadier Guards’ Queen’s Company Camp Colour – a smaller version of the Royal Standard of the Regiment – which the King placed on her coffin at the end of the committal service.The Grenadier Guards are the most senior of the Foot Guards regiments and the Queen was their Colonel in Chief.
