The funeral will take place on 04.12.2009 at 11 a clock at the Church of Our Lady at Laeken. Afterwards he will be buried in a Chapel near the Royal Crypt.
What a poor mistake: The German Boulevard magazine Gala writes that Prince Alexander is the halfbrother of Prince Albert II of Monaco:

Has this been confirmed officially?
It's nice that they will attend.

The graves of the Count and Countess of Flanders, Prince Charles, Count of Flandes, Prince Leopold, Duke of Brabant and Princess Joséphine are actually in the Main-Part of the Crypt. The are behind the big Sarcophage of King Leopold I. and Queen Louise-Marie.No they are 2 chapels , the one with 5 big marber tombs of the 5 late Kings and Queens of Belgium: Léopold I and Louise-Marie, Leopold II and Marie-Henriette, Albert I and Elisabeth, Leopold III and Astrid & Lilian, and Baudouin Ier. The Royal crypt is open the day of their death.
They have to add a new one for King Albert II and Paola.
In the other chapel are the Princes of Belgium , like Mafan explained , the Count of Flanders and family, Empress Charlotte of Mexico, the little Prince Leopold , I suppose Charles Count of Flanders, the first born child of Margaretha and Niklaus von and zu Liechtenstein and now Prince Alexandre.
Princess Astrid and Prince Lorenz won't attend the funeral, due to their engagements in Colombia, according to the website of the Royal Family.The Palace announced it on their website.
I'm surprised at Princess Astrid and Prince Lorenz being mentioned, as they are scheduled to be in Colombia for 4 or 5 days. But I suppose they will come back early then.
