In Rome we went to a Capuchin church. This church had a crypt that was decorated with the bones of 4000 monks. It was a little strange, but at the same time very well done. It had some mummies, but mostly it had different shapes made out of the same bones. There were a lot of skulls used, but there were also quite a bit of other decorations using other bones, like spines. It was rather morbid and ended with the words, "We are what we are you will become" (or something like that)
