==Death and burial== [[File:EDuard Filpa.jpg|thumb|right|Effigies of [[Edward III of England|King Edward III]] and Queen Philippa in Westminster Abbey]] On 15 August 1369, Queen Philippa died of an illness similar to [[oedema]] in [[Windsor Castle]]. She was given a [[state funeral]] six months later on 9 January 1370 and was interred at [[Westminster Abbey]]. Her alabaster [[effigy]] was executed by sculptor [[Jean de LiΓ¨ge]]. Her tomb was placed on the northeast side of the Chapel of Edward the Confessor and on the opposite side of her husband's grandparents, [[Edward I of England|Edward I]] and [[Eleanor of Castile]]. Eight years later, Edward III died and was buried next to Philippa. By all accounts, their forty-year marriage had been happy.<ref>{{Cite ODNB|id=22110|title=Philippa [Philippa of Hainault] (1310x15?β1369)|last=Vale|first=Juliet|year=2010|orig-year=2004|doi=10.1093/ref:odnb/22110}}</ref> [[The Queen's College, Oxford]] was founded by her chaplain [[Robert de Eglesfield]] in her honour.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.queens.ox.ac.uk/history|title = History}}</ref>
