Kostnice v Sedlci 🇨🇿

The Sedlec Ossuary is a Roman Catholic chapel, located beneath the Cemetery Church of All Saints, part of the former Sedlec Abbey in Sedlec, a suburb of Kutná Hora in the Czech Republic.

The story

A long trip avoiding highways to enjoy as much scenery as possible, from Prague to Bratislava, with a stop at the Sedlec Ossuary. Unfortunately, photography is prohibited, and even with my stealth photography skills, it was impossible to trick the lady watching the security cams. So, just enjoy the scenery outside!

The story

Today was a road trip day since my feet still hurt from all the walking in flip-flops on the cobblestones seen everywhere in Prague! So, I made a quick visit to a gate of Hell and “Bratislava”, one of the filming locations of EuroTrip!
