Osbourne’s coffin, transported inside of a hearse decorated with a purple crucifix and his name in flowers, traveled down Broad Street to the Black Sabbath Bridge and bench, which have long been gathering spots for fans.

Tens of thousands of people lined the streets of the central England city where Black Sabbath was formed to catch a glimpse of the heavy metal icon’s hearse.

In 2019, the city of Birmingham paid tribute to its greatest musical export, renaming a bridge in the center of town after Black Sabbath. Egyptian artist Tarek Abelkawi designed a bench with the likenesses and signatures of all four Black Sabbath members.
