Prince Philip will become the 25th Royal in the 200-year-old vault hidden beneath St George’s Chapel in Windsor when he is buried.
The Duke of Edinburgh, who died last Friday aged 99, will join a range of kings and queens behind a set of iron gates around 16ft underground.
Among the notables already there include George III, George IV, George V of Hanover and William IV.
His coffin will be lowered into the Royal Vault at around 3pm and will stay there until the Queen dies
