Prague; Tuesday, 17 April, 2001

For those of you who are of a morbid fascination then the trip to Kutna Hora and more importantly the small town of Sedlec that lies just outside the city are a must.

In the town a small church was such a popular place to be interred when you died that after a while the number of bodies started to get out of hand. In the end 40,000 sets of remains were filling up the chapel and it was decided that something should be done.

This something turned out to be making decorations out of the bones. From piles of skulls to a coat of alms and even a chandelier made out of at least one of every bone in the human body!

After that we had a quick look around the city of Kutna Hora before heading back to the train station and the train back to Prague
