Introduction to the Royal Tomb: The Habsburg Tomb (Kaisergruft) is located in the plain-looking Kapuzinerkirche. Because this place was originally a branch of the Poor Order, there are almost no church buildings. Any carving. In the nine crypts of this church, there are zinc or copper coffins of 138 members of the Habsburg dynasty, the last of which was held in 1989. The last emperor of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, Karl I, and his wife Zita were expelled from the country after the founding of the Republic. They spent their entire lives in Switzerland and failed to return to their country. When Queen Zita died, the Austrian Republic finally agreed to have her remains Buried in the Royal Crypt.
