Kutná Hora is an ancient city, which once became the economic and political center of the Czech Republic around the 13-16 century. Since 1995, this city center has been recognized by UNESCO as a World Cultural Heritage.

Buildings, castles and churches in the Baroque-style city from medieval times. This is an attractive highlight not for weak heart visitors. In particular, one of the most impressive works is the Sedlec Ossuary church, located in the Sedlec Ossemony complex.

Sedlec Ossuary (or Bone Church) is an incredibly scary Roman Catholic church, built and decorated with 40,000 human skeletons. The architecture is also made from human bones with extremely meticulous and elaborate designs.

History is recorded here in 1278, the abbot of Cistercian Sedlec Monastery brought a jar of holy land from Golgotha, where Jesus was crucified. Because of this, all people in the area asked to be buried in the church ...

By the 15th century, the cemeteries in the cemetery were gathered to take the land for building and developing the town. By 1870, the sculptor Frantisek Rint had been appointed to excavate and use skeletons to create works of art for the church.

There are many impressive works to mention, such as the large chandeliers made entirely of bone or garland from the skull ... The emblem of this symbol (in the picture) is made from the bones of Schwarzenberg, a family Czech noble family once ruled the city.

Each large room here has religious altars made of bone to remind visitors that this place is still a revered church to pray, although if you look with your eyes, you will find quite a horror.

"However, it is still a place that regularly hosts small and large events, even many concerts are held inside the church," explained Radka Krejci, director of the Sedlec Ossemony complex.

In addition to the Bone Church, inside the Sedlec Ossemony complex, there are also many tourist attractions, such as Sedlec Church, the oldest proof of Baroque architectural style in the world that has been recognized by UNESCO Cultural Heritage. There is also St. Barbara Church, Museum GASK, Chocolate Museum or Museum of printers ...
