@czechglobalhosts One of the best things about visiting Sedlec, Czech Republic is the magnificent Sedlec Ossuary, also known as the ‘Church of Bones’. Built in the 1400s, the Gothic style church looks like a normal old age church from the outside, but its lower floors have the most beautiful artistic arrangement of skeletons known to the human kind. An ossuary is a place where the bones or the skeletal remains of the dead people are placed. In the ancient times when the burial space was scarce, the remains were kept in small Ossuary like the Sedlec one.
