What happens now as Queen farewelled

After more than 70 years of service, Queen Elizabeth II has been farwelled in a public funeral live-streamed across the world and watched by billions.

Hundreds of world leaders and the mourning public paid tribute to Britain’s longest reigning monarch alongside the Royal Family in an hour-long funeral service that took place at Westminster Abbey.

Hymns and prayers were sung in honour of Her Majesty as her coffin was lowered into the Royal Vault at St George’s Chapel; the resting place of past monarchs such as King George III, IV and V, William IV and others.

The day the world stood still: The funeral of Queen Elizabeth II

While that moment marked the end of the Queen’s public funeral, it was not the end of her journey.

Queen Elizabeth II was then taken to her final resting place – the George VI Memorial Chapel in Windsor Castle – for a televised committal service and private burial.
