@mind.body.million: The Church Made of bones This is the Chapel of Bones — a church in Évora, Portugal, built entirely from the skulls and bones of over 5,000 human remains. Franciscan monks constructed it in the 1500s to serve as a reminder that life is short and death is certain. Above the entrance, an inscription still reads: "We bones that are here, await yours." Inside, two mummified bodies hang from the ceiling — one of them a child — and no one knows their names. This is not a horror set. It is a real church, open to tourists every single day. #hiddenplaces #GeoVision #mysteriouspLaces #googleearth #placesyoudidntknow
