"In the Cemetary Church of All Saints in Sedlec, Czech Republic, there lies a small chamber decorated with the bones of over 40,000 human corpses.
"The gothic church above was first built way back n 1400, and after the skeletons were exhumed a few hundred years later, the bone heaps were put in order in 1870 by a woodcarver.
"It's quite macabre but actually quite beautiful, once you get over your initial fear.
"There's even a large and elaborate chandelier that is made up of at least one of each bone in the human body.
"Wonderful, how they transform these remains into works of art, but creepy, for visitors who have thousands of hollow sockets giving them hollow stares.".thx
