The ceremony of Lord Nelson's internment in St Paul's Cathedral
Nelson was given a splendid state funeral and
burial in St Paul's Cathedral in 1806. The ceremony was attended by
officers of Nelson's ship (the Victory), admirals and captains of
the fleet, and most of the royal family. Nelson's coffin was then
lowered into the crypt, into a sarcophagus intended for Cardinal
Wolsey.
