20140527 Curiouser and curiouser.....

Truly the strangest - yet not macabre - place I have ever seen.
Taken in the Sedlec Ossuary, also known as the Bone Church, in the small Czech Republic town of Kutna Hora, where the underground chapel is decorated with the bones of some 40,000 skeletons.
In the lower centre of the shot you can see the top of the 'chains' of a huge chandelier, said to include at least one of every bone in the human body.

Amazing. We went to the Capuchin Church in Rome, their crypt is the same, fascinating to see

@kimkyra just had a look at that online - looks like they have much bigger display, but a different style. Have added it to my 'one day.....' list :-)
