On Web Urbanist I came across
this post about ossuaries (place that houses bones) around the world. While it is kinda creepy that someone decided to use human bones to decorate chapels and other buildings, some of them are quite beautiful. The ceiling in the picture below is from the Chapel of Skulls in Poland and I love it.


I like how they decided that human bones were not enough, but they still needed to add those gaudy little cherubs to get the full effect.
