The coffin with the body of the monarch who died on Thursday will be on a so-called catafalque – a kind of plateau – in Westminster Hall of the London Parliament building from Wednesday (5 p.m. local time).
Flowers or messages may not be placed in front of it. Until the day of the state funeral on September 19, the British public will have 24 hours a day to pay their Queen one last visit and say goodbye. However, you should plan a lot of time: “You have to stand for many hours, probably overnight, with little opportunity to sit down because the line will move on,” says the British government’s information on the processes. You should think twice about bringing children. Roadblocks and disruptions to the transport network are also to be expected.
