But Queen Victoria, probably acting on an idea already discussed with the Prince, followed the German tradition of building a private mausoleum. Erected in the grounds of Frogmore House, in the Home Park just southeast of Windsor Castle, the interior was decorated in a style inspired by the Prince’s beloved Raphael.
Adjacent to the Royal Mausoleum is the Royal Burial Ground. Since its consecration on October 23, 1928, most members of the British Royal Family except for monarchs and their spouses have been buried there. The Duke of Windsor, formerly King Edward VIII, and his wife are also buried there.
