On February 8, 1587 st the age of 44 years old, Mary Queen of Scots was executed. She had been imprisoned in England gor 19 years by her cousin Queen Elizabeth I. She was finally burried after almost 6 months at Peterborough Cathedral on July 30, 1587
Before being buried Mary’s heart and entrails were removed and secretly buried somewhere on Fatheringhay Castle grounds. The garments she wore, the block, and anything that could possibly be used as a relic was also burned. Her body was put in a heavy lead coffin where it sat for almost six months. Mary had requested to be burried at either the Basilica Saint Denis with her first husband Frances II of France or in Reims with her mother Marie de Guise. Elizabeth I denied this request. Instead Peterborough Cathedral was chosen. The coffin was finally taken after so many months in the middle of the night to the Cathedral for fear that there would be demonstrations and rioting. Mary was given a Protestant state funeral. No fellow Scotsman were present. Mary Queen of Scots was 44 years old when she died.
