This is a Roman Catholic Church and was previously known as the ‘Royal Church of St. Mary at Aachen’. The church has been the coronation church for thirty German kings and twelve queens. This church is also the final resting place of Charlemagne who was buried in a vault in the cathedral. The Shrine of St Mary is placed in the choir of the church and the relics are removed from the shrine during the Great Aachen Pilgrimage.
