The last time my parents and I went to Kutna Hora, we went to the Santa Barbara cathedral. It was gorgeous. However, after I left the Czech Republic I came across a post that talked about the creepiest places on earth and mentioned that Kutna Hora had an ossuary made up lots of skulls (40,000). I was a bit upset that I didn't see it even though I was in the area. So, on this trip I made sure that we went to the ossuary because it was just an hour from my grandma's village. It was such a crazy sight to see and even creepier to think that 40,000 skulls were used to make it. However, it was quite beautiful in a creepy artistic way. After the ossuary we went to another cathedral. Then we went for drinks at a restaurant across the cathedral. I realized that I really hadn't taken that many photos of people wearing my glasses on this trip, so I went back to the ossuary to get my photos! Thanks to the workers who participated!
