Czechia - inside Ossuary Chapel in Sedlec 03

The Sedlec Ossuary (kostnice Sedlec) is a small Christian chapel located beneath the Church of All Saints (Hřbitovní kostel Všech Svatých) in Sedlec, a suburb of Kutná Hora in the Czech Republic. The ossuary of the "Bone Church," as it is popularly known, contains approximately 40,000 human skeletons which have been artistically arranged to form decorations and furnishings for the chapel by a half-blind monk in 1511.
