Postcard received, no. 5

Today I received my 5th postcard! It is a crad from the Czech Republic. It shows the Ossuary in Kutná Hora - Sedlec.
The Sedlec Ossuary (Czech: kostnice Sedlec) is a small Roman Catholic chapel, located beneath the Cemetery Church of All Saints (Czech: Hřbitovní kostel Všech Svatých) in Sedlec, a suburb of Kutná Hora in the Czech Republic. The ossuary is estimated to contain the skeletons of between 40,000 and 70,000 people, many of whom have had their bones artistically arranged to form decorations and furnishings for the chapel. The ossuary is among the most visited tourist attractions of the Czech Republic, attracting over 200,000 visitors yearly (source: wikipedia).

  1. Hello Richard, I've just written you a card. How cool to find a fellow postcrosser which is running a blog too. I'm not sure you'll be that interested in my blog but perhaps your wife will.
    I would have sent you a view card of the Pulpit rock but was out of stock. When you register my card I'll send you a link to have a small peak into the surroundings of my area, Rogaland. Smart to write the blog in English, that way I could understand what you are saying.
    Good luck with postcrossing!
    Laila from Norway.
