Breaking Into The Coffin Of Queen Elizabeth I

One of the greatest Queen to ever rule over England was Queen Elizabeth I. When she ruled during the 16th and the start of the 17th century, she would have to deal with a massive number of threats to her reign. Many believed that she would not be strong enough as a ruler, but she would be ruthless and she would sentence many of her rivals to death and would dispatch them brutally. She would condemn Mary Queen of Scots to death and she would lose her head by axe. But Elizabeth was cold and calculated, and she would in her final years even order the executions of some of her closest friends. She would also defeat the Spanish Armada which was the most fierce and feared naval fleet at the time, and Elizabeth was loved by her people. However as 1603 came around, Elizabeth was not well and she would give up on life as many of her friends passed away around her and the Queen decided she did not want to live anymore. But following her funeral and burial, her vault where she was laid to rest would be broken into and what those people found was shocking and remarkable.

    Why did you continually show a photograph of "Westminster Palace", Houses of Parliament, while talking about her burial in Westminster Abby? They are not related.

    What did the doctors do with Queen Elizabeth's I internal organs? Were they buried also? Was she buried with any of her jewelry?

    The internal organs were removed and buried separately against Elizabeth's wishes. Her jewelry was indeed placed in her coffin.

    I wonder why the Tudors bodies would exlpoid inside their coffins?. This in not the first time I hear of such, Henry VIII's body too experienced the same thing.

    Or it was just skewed reporting. There is a Bible passage about this occurring when an evil king died and this was used to demonize later rulers.

    There’s a church in the country who have a piece of her clothing. It may have been used as an altar piece. I have seen it on one of the history shows. Can’t remember who but one of the expert ones. Should be able to look it up some where 🙏👵🇦🇺

    Well, pre-modern embalming….it was not that unusual for bodies to leak or have gas build-ups/escapes…..that’s just how bodies decay. And “herbs and spices” and organ removal would help some….but not by much.
