Stone chamber or vault beneath the floor of a burial vault
This article is about the stone chambers called "crypts". For other uses, see Crypt (disambiguation).
A crypt (from Greek κρύπτη (krypte) crypta "vault") is a stone chamber beneath the floor of a church or other building. It typically contains coffins, sarcophagi, or religious relics.
Originally, crypts were typically found below the main apse of a church, such as at the Abbey of Saint-Germain en Auxerre, but were later located beneath chancel, naves and transepts as well. Occasionally churches were raised high to accommodate a crypt at the ground level, such as St Michael's Church in Hildesheim, Germany.
