From the outside, the Kaplica Czaszek church in Poland looks like many similar structures. However, once inside, people will have a strong impression. The reason is because this is the world famous bone church.

Located in the town of Czermna, Poland, the Kaplica Czaszek church is known as the world famous human skeleton church. Outside the Kaplica Czaszek church looks like many other structures. However, inside this unique church is decorated with more than 3,000 human skeletons. These thousands of human skeletons belong to those who died in war or died of disease in the 1600s – 1700s. These human skeletons are arranged as a work of art that makes many people feel cold when looking at them. In it, skull and leg bones are meticulously arranged on the ceiling and on the wall. The remaining bones are placed behind a secret door in the crypt at the foot of the church. Father Vaclav Tomasek is the one who arranges thousands of skeletons in the Kaplica Czaszek church. He came up with the idea of ​​decorating the church with human bones when he visited makeshift graves and sketchy memorials for soldiers and civilians who died of wars and epidemics. Therefore, priest Vaclav Tomasek collected the remains and brought them back to the Kaplica Czaszek church to clean and arrange them on the walls and ceiling. Father Vaclav Tomasek completed the decoration of the Kaplica Czaszek church with human bones between 1776 and 1804. After the death of priest Vaclav Tomasek in 1804, his remains were also placed on the altar before God in the Kaplica Czaszek church. In the following decades, the Kaplica Czaszek church became a world famous tourist destination when decorated with unique “masterpieces” of human bones.
