The Sedlec Ossuary small chapel about 45 miles from Prague that is decorated in human bones and skulls. There's been a religious edifice on this site since 1142, and dem bones were deposited in a chapel beneath the cemetery after 1511. But this display of bones is done by a Czech wood carver who created them around 1870 from the 40,000 people who rest in peace here. Top that, Frank Gehry!
