After several weeks of mourning and honoring the legacy of Queen Elizabeth II’s 70-year reign, the royal family released a touching photo of her final resting place. The Queen is not only back with her beloved husband Prince Philip, but she is also with her parents, King George VI and Queen Elizabeth.

The new grave marker was shared on social media on Sept. 24 with the message, “A ledger stone has been installed at the King George VI Memorial Chapel, following the interment of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth. The King George VI Memorial Chapel sits within the walls of St George’s Chapel, Windsor.” The grave was adorned with numerous wreaths of flowers to note Queen Elizabeth II’s recent passing. The Queen’s sister, Princess Margaret, also has a marker in the corner with her remains close to the rest of her family.
