Church-made up of humen bones ....... Really amazing

[waqassial]

Dear friends
See the decorations of one of the most famous Churchs in Check Republic.




This church is small but 1000 years old. This church differentiates others as it is not decorated by wood, stone, marble or any other artificial materials but with Muslims' bones!!!!



The story starts when the Pope Hanry set his journey to Qudus during the holy war in the year 1218 he ordered crusaders to bring the bones of Muslim who were killed in the war in order to decorate the church.




In the year 1318 they redecorated the Church with new bones of around 300,000 Muslims. In 1870 Sculptors reconstructed the decoration with 40,000 bones of Muslims to look the church more attractive and beautiful.



At present this church is one of the famous church in the world not for its ancientness but for its decoration with the bones of Muslims.

This is the number one foolishness they had done. After death there is no any Christian ,Hindu,Muslim,Sikh,Jews or nothing. No one can identify the bones from where it comes and which religion and color all are same.

Dear Astir,
I can debate on this and will definitly make you realise that Even after death we remain in the circle of our religions.....
For a short term please go through the following one example; I have thousands of others too

"Just think If you are Hindu your body will be burnt
If you are Muslim you will be in grave
If you are Christian you will be in a wooden box etc etc etc"

After your death the way people treat your body is your religion...

Thanks & Regards

first of all nice finding dear, The church is made of human skeletons I agree, but no where mention that it build with Muslims bones. I searched a lot and find these details.

The well-known story of the Bone Church (‘Ossuary’ to be more correct or ‘Kostnice’ in Czech) in Kutná Hora is that, in the 13th century, Jindřich, the abbot of Sedlec monastery, returned from a visit to Palestine with a pocketful of soil and sprinkled it on the cemetery surrounding the Chapel of All Saints.



This direct association with the holy land led to the graveyard becoming a sought after burial site among the aristocracy of Central Europe. At the time of the thirty years’ war in the 17th century, the number of burials outgrew the space available, the older remains began to be exhumed and stored in the chapel, and it’s estimated that the chapel now contains the bones of up to 40,000 people.
