#WordyWednesday: Catafalque (yeah, I know I’m posting this a day late, but it was the cat-a-fault 👀 see what I did there? Anyways, kittens!)

A catafalque (pronounced CATTA-falk) is the fancy stand a casket rest on during a viewing or funeral. They’re usually constructed from wood and have wheels concealed beneath them so we can push caskets to different areas of the mortuary.

Catafalques can be simple or ornate, and are sometimes concealed behind a fabric drape. They’re also known as biers (pronounced beers), and are not to be confused with church trucks (those are the wheeled metal stands that fold up like an accordion).

More random funeral info... the podium that the coffin gets put on is called a #catafalque. There are usually rollers on it to help the bearers slide the #Coffin on smoothly.
