    A nice half day trip. An old silver town with some interesting archetecture. We took a tour from Prague which included lunch. Reasonable price. Included was a visit to the Osiary (bone chapel) Quite macabre!

  • At Sedlec on the outskirts of Kutna Hora is an ossuary where the bones and skulls of around 30,000 people were laid to rest and have since been arranged in artistic designs coverin the walls of the small church. There is a pretty cemetery too.

    Kutna Hora: Don't miss the cathedral

  • Kutna Hora is about an hour from Prague on a fast train - make sure you get on the right train! You can get a ticket through to Kutna Hora - you will need to change trains near Sedlic and get on a small "toy" train like a tram up to KH.
    We did'nt have enough time here due to it being very cold, snowing and having a complaining family but I thought it a wonderful place. The cathedral is not to be missed - it has several artifacts over 700 years old and some of the original early medieval artwork to the walls and ceilings intact. This is rare glimpse into ancient rural life - the scenes are local to the area of artisans and local people - I found it fascinating.

  • The ossuary in Kutna Hora. This is very strange, but if your even a little bit intrigued by the macabe it is an absolute must see! This otherwise normal church and cemetary was overrun with plague victim corpses, and in the late 19th century a local artisan was comissened to create sculpture out of the human bones that were crowding the cemetary. The result is bizzare and very beatutiful. Once there (Kutna Hora) check out the old mines, and the cathedral. Plan on spending a day but not much more.

    Take a day trip to Kutna Hora. Here you can see an amazing bone church. Inside the bones of 40,000 people are kept, some of which have been used to make chandeliers, and crucifixes and other decorations around the church. Very eerie.

    Kutna Hoa is a nice little village a hour or so drive out of Prague. Here is where you can see the Bone Church. This church is decorated with the remains of thousands of human bones.

    See my Kutna Hora travelogue for more pictures.

  • A town called Honta Hura. There they have a 'bone chapel' where bones of over 30000 decease are use to decorate the chapel.

    Its only 45min by train and definately worth the trip.
