He drew his final breath in Richmond Palace.
He first fell ill some time in late 1508 and by February 1509, he stopped receiving visitors on state business. From then on, there appeared to be a steady decline in his health.
While on his deathbed, Henry received sacraments, which, according to John Fisher, he did so with "a marvellous compassion and flow of tears" and "many knockings and beatings of his breast".

He was buried at Westminster Abbey alongside his wife of 17 years, Elizabeth of York.
He was succeeded by his son, the infamous King Henry VIII.
