King Frederik IX of Denmark was buried (January 24, 1972) in Roskilde Chathedral, where many of his ancestors are also buried.
The King (and later Queen Ingrid) have been put to rest in a specially build place, just outside the Cathedral, which was done on the King's special request.
* pics were taken during my holiday in Denmark, last year.
Here's a link to the guestlist at the time of the funeral, as created by JimBob
and which he recently has posted on the Scandinavian MB:
