Flowers outside St George's Chapel where Prince Philip's funeral will be held on Saturday. On Saturday, a ceremonial royal funeral will be held at the castle's St George's Chapel in the grounds of the castle. Saturday's ceremonial royal funeral - which is not a state funeral - will begin at 1pm (GMT). HEARSE FIT FOR AND DESIGNED BY PRINCEWhen Prince Philip's coffin is conveyed to church for his funeral service, it will be taken in a specially-commissioned Land Rover that the British royal himself helped design. Prime Minister Boris Johnson told Parliament this week it was fitting that Philip would be taken to his final resting place on a modified Land Rover.
