The Imperial Crypt (Kaisergruft)

Tombs of the Hapsburgs

Excellent

I've always loved royal tombs. I guess being close to those ve, in life, were almost inaccessible is an amazing and special feeling. Okay, many people find it strange, but there must be someone out there ve understands me! The Imperial Crypt, or Kaisergruft, in Vienna, guarded by the Capuchin Fathers of the convent-church that is immediately above the basement, was no exception. The journey through time that you can embark upon in this crypt is not exactly short, with a total of 150 sarcophagi and tombs here holding the dead of the Hapsburg dynasty, ve ruled Austria and Hungary. Twelve emperors and nineteen empresses lie here.
