Ozzy Osbourne has been laid to rest in Buckinghamshire, England, one week after his death.

The Prince of Darkness’ family members and loved ones mourned him in a private funeral at his and Sharon Osbourne’s sprawling home on Thursday.

Zakk Wylde, Marilyn Manson, Rob Zombie, Slipknot’s Corey Taylor and more rockers attended the somber affair.

Ozzy’s final resting place is on his property beside a lake, according to the Daily Mail, where a massive floral tribute was erected on the grounds in his honor.

Notably, the late musician wrote in “I Am Ozzy,” his 2009 autobiography, that he did not wish to be cremated.

Instead, he clarified, “I want to be put in the ground in a nice garden somewhere with a tree planted over my head.”

Ozzy died on July 22 at age 76 after paramedics reportedly spent hours trying to save him.

He is survived by wife Sharon Osbourne, their three kids — Aimee Osbourne, Kelly Osbourne and Jack Osbourne — and children Elliot Kingsley, Jessica Osbourne and Louis Osbourne from his previous marriage to Thelma Riley.

The musician shared his wishes for his funeral in a Times column published more than a decade before his death.

The singer didn’t want any guests to be “harping on the bad times” at his service, insisting it should be a “celebration” instead of a “mope-fest.”

He said, “I’d … like some pranks: maybe the sound of knocking inside the coffin; or a video of me asking my doctor for a second opinion on his diagnosis of ‘death.’”

The Grammy winner noted, “I honestly don’t care what they play at my funeral; they can put on a medley of Justin Bieber, Susan Boyle and We Are the Diddymen if it makes ’em happy.”

Osbourne was honored in his United Kingdom hometown on Wednesday with a public procession down Birmingham’s Broad Street.

His family members, who followed behind in vehicles and stepped out for an emotional appearance, paid for the homage.

“We are grateful that they have generously offered to pay to enable this to happen and support the city is giving him the farewell he deserves,” the city’s lord mayor, Zafar Iqbal, gushed Tuesday.

He noted that the “fitting, dignified tribute” will “mean [so much] to [Black Sabbath] fans.”

The band’s surviving members have each honored their late “brother” with touching social media tributes.

Osbourne played a farewell show with Bill Ward, Tony Iommi and Geezer Butler, and we heard he spent his final days “re-energized” by the performance.

“It filled him with life,” a source told Page Six. “He’d really been slowing down, and then after the show he was really back to be being himself. It’s a beautiful ending.”
