High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! The Imperial Crypt in Vienna, Austria lies below the Capuchins' church (the Church of St. Mary of the Angels) and monastery founded in 1617 and dedicated in 1632. It is on the Neue Markt square, near the imperial Hofburg palace. Since 1633 it has been the principal place of entombment for members of the Habsburg dynasty. The bodies of 143 Habsburg royalty, plus urns containing the hearts or cremated remains of four others, are deposited here (as of 2009). They include 12 emperors and 18 empresses. The most recent entombment148 was in 2008. The visible 104 metal sarcophagi and 5 heart urns range in style from puritan plain to exuberant rococo. The Imperial Crypt is one of the top tourist attractions in Vienna. To this day, some of the dozen resident Capuchin friars continue their customary role as the guardians and caretakers of the crypt along with their other pastoral work in Vienna.
