Hi guys welcome to another episode of ultimate bucket list and today
I see dead people the said 'let's ossuary aka the bone church this church
an hour outside of Prague in the Czech Republic is home to over 40,000 dead
people whose remains have been used to make house decorations now if you come
here it looks like any ordinary Church with any ordinary graveyard but once you
step foot inside of the entrance you'll realize that this this isn't any Church
that you've ever been to there are skulls and bones literally everywhere
especially when you come here to the entrance you'll quickly realize that wow
there's actually a lot of dead people on display here the fountains are made of
hid bones the ceiling is made of skulls and once you step downstairs it gets a
lot weirder there's bones literally to the left and the right of you and it's
only then that you realize the scale of the amounts of dead people here now the
story goes that this used to be a famous place where people wanted to be buried
oh and before I tell you about that story here's a chandelier made entirely
of humans that's not at all creepy is it but the story goes that when the church
ran out of space for all these dead bodies they started to exhume them and
pile the bones book and it was only hundreds of years later that somebody
decided to decorate the church with them whether our past legal I'm not entirely
sure but the one thing I can say is that there are literally bones everywhere on
the ceiling on the walls and especially if you look in the corners like now you
can see that there's just thousands and thousands of them literally piled up on
top of one another the amount of death here is absolutely incredible and these
are all real these are actually real human remains and
it's pretty damn surreal indeed when I came here it was the middle of the day
and was really sunny outside I can imagine that this place is infinitely
creepier at night by far the coolest bit is this centerpiece here whereby they've
got skulls and bones they've got a chandelier made of bones and it's joint
to all the ceiling decorations which is surprise surprise made of bones and even
though they don't tell you to touch it yes I touched a human skull and it was
pretty cool in the middle of it here you've got the shrine of Jesus where you
can toss coins and make your wishes but if you look carefully you'll notice that
there's still thousands and thousands of bones hidden in the corners that you
can't see so yeah this place is incredible
albeit not that big because pretty much what you see here on this video is
pretty much the entire ossuary so it's basically the size of a basement but is
filled with dead people lots of them here we see the crest and coat of arms
which is made of bone no surprises there but it's actually intricately decorated
and even though it's a bit creepy it's actually kind of cool okay guys
this place is seriously messed up I mean everything butchering everything here is
made of bone actual human bones
this is a course of arms ladle of people it's made of people now you could do all
of this in about 30 seconds but I would strongly recommend that you take your
time and wander around and look at every single detail if you look carefully
you'll see creepy statues you'll see bones from pretty much everywhere on the
human body on display in some form or another and the feeling of the place
well I wouldn't say that it had a horrible feeling it was just very very
surreal that's probably the best word I can use to describe it take lots of
pictures guys because once you get back up the stairs and out of the exit that's
it that's the end of your visit so if our you I would examine every
single little bit and be satisfied that you sinned this place before actually
leaving but having said that this is the sort of place that you don't forget that
you've ever been to because I guaranteed that you've probably never been to a
place like this before and will probably never see a
place like this ever again now if you get bored of this you can literally walk
down the street pass the ticket office and yes you need to buy a ticket before
you get in to the Cathedral which is on the street now this is probably the
Beija schedule that you've ever seen in your life
it's literally whites and Magnolia which it seems kind of plain-jane compared to
some of the other cathedrals that you might see in Prague or any other
European city but it is still a fantastic piece of architecture it still
has some ornate things that you can see but largely this is to fill up this time
before you go back on the train okay nin and so what do I do
well you need to come here to cut an hora
it's about an hour from Prague so you'll need to buy a train to get a products
main station and you'll come to the main station here at kuta hora now you can
either take a bus here but to be honest it was about a 14 minute
walk from the train station to here so I decided to walk it and I was pretty much
the first one in the door the cost cost not too bad about 120 crowns which is
about five euros I guess and that also gives you access to the cathedral which
is just over there is there anything else I need to know yes it's actually a
lot smaller than what you think it is I was actually shocked as to how small it
actually was it's pretty much a basement full of bones but it doesn't detract
from the fact that it's absolutely cool yeah they don't like using tripods or
flash photography because obviously it's a place of the dead so you've just got
to be a little bit respectful when you're here so guys thanks for watching
us another episode of ultimate bucket list comment on the comment section
below and if you've got any other ideas for
bucket list ideas tweet them at me and if I do get enough suggestions I'll go
ahead and do that so guys thank you very much for tuning in to this rather creepy
ish episode of ultimate bucket list and will seem that there's plenty more in
the back that you can't see
it's creepy and cool at the same time my life Rebeck the fits why can I never get
this bag on ah
