His tomb (No. 14) in Bani Hassan consists of one chapel for offerings carved into the rock with two pillars. The columns are now gone. The church walls were painted although today the paintings are very faded. Inside the church, there are two columns leading to the burial chambers, and only one of them has been completed.

The western wall of the Offering Chapel, south of the entrance, shows a long autobiographical inscription, an important historical document. Under the inscription, Khnumhotep I appears on a boat fishing in the marshes. To the north of the entrance on the same wall is a false door in which the family of Khnumhotep I is depicted.
