The word "necropolis" literally means "city of the dead"; so, a necropolis is a cemetery, a final resting place. A royal necropolis is basically a cemetery for members of royal families - particularly kings and queens, but also their relatives. Well-known royal necropolises include the Basilica of Saint-Denis (France), the Imperial Crypt (Austria) and the Wawel Cathedral (Poland).
