There Is A Church Decorated With The Bones Of 40,000 People

Love it. We haven't been there but we have been to the crypt (somehow it's always spookier underground in a crypt) under the Capuchin Church - Santa Maria della Concezione dei Cappuccini - right on the Via Veneto in Rome. They have the bones of 3,700 dead monks arrnaged artistically in several rooms down there.

The Marquis de Sade noted that he found his 1775 journey to the crypt was worth the effort, and Nathaniel Hawthorne noted its grotesque nature in his 1860 novel The Marble Faun.
