40,000 Dead

Detail of one of four pyramids built from human skeletons. Many of the victims are thought to have died of the plague.

About this place:

The bones of 40,000 plague victims are creatively displayed in the basement of this church, located about an hour from Prague, Czech Republic. A family crest, a 4-foot high chalice and a skeletal chandelier among the highlights. A must-see if traveling to Prague.
