Imperial Crypt - Future Entombments

Future Entombments

A specific place remaining in the Crypt Chapel is reserved for Archduchess Yolande (1923 - ), wife (1950) of Archduke Carl Ludwig148. There is room for two others along the east wall.

Any other entombments would most easily be located along the south wall in the New Vault. There is also room in the Tuscan Vault, but that would not follow the generally-chronological arrangement of the tombs.

Cremated remains can be accommodated within the piers in the corners of Ferdinand's Vault.

Since 1971 members of the family who die during the exile (e.g. Archduke Rudolf (1919–2010)) are mostly entombed in the crypt of the Loretto Chapel of the Benedictine Monastery at Muri, Switzerland, which was founded in 1027 by Count Radebot von Habsburg.

Famous quotes containing the word future:

    Our Last Will and Testament, providing for the only future of which we can be reasonably certain, namely our own death, shows that the Will’s need to will is no less strong than Reason’s need to think; in both instances the mind transcends its own natural limitations, either by asking unanswerable questions or by projecting itself into a future which, for the willing subject, will never be.
    Hannah Arendt (1906–1975)
