The Sedlec Ossuary is a Roman Catholic chapel beneath the Cemetery Church of All Saints in Sedlec, a suburb of Kutná Hora in the Czech Republic. Estimated to hold the remains of 40,000 to 70,000 people, its interior is decorated with bones, including a chandelier containing at least one of every bone in the human body. Designed by Jan Santini Aichel in the Gothic style, it is a national cultural monument and among the country's most visited attractions.
