The Cemetery Church of All Saints with the Ossuary

Discover this unique chapel decorated with human bones. Built in the 14th century as part of a Cistercian monastery, it houses the remains of about 40,000 people. After the cemetery was abolished in the late 15th century, a Sedlec monk arranged the bones into large pyramids in 1511. The chapel's striking decorations are believed to be designed by renowned architect J. B. Santini.

25 minutes Admission Ticket Included

The Cathedral of Assumption

Visit the Cathedral of the Assumption of Our Lady in Sedlec - Kutná Hora (UNESCO). Originally built in the 14th century in the Neo-Gothic style, it was abandoned and damaged during the Hussite Wars. It was later reconstructed in the pure Baroque style by the famous architect Jan Blažej Santini. This masterpiece represents a unique blend of Gothic and Baroque architecture.

St Barbara's Cathedral

Visit the Cathedral of St. Barbara in Kutná Hora (UNESCO). Dedicated to St. Barbara, the patron saint of miners, the cathedral was funded by the medieval mining community. Construction began in the late 14th century with the renowned Parler workshop and continued with contributions from artists like Benedikt Ried. This cathedral uniquely blends Gothic and Baroque styles, showcasing the town's rich heritage. Before visiting this church, count on the transfer from Sedlec to Kutná Hora, which takes about 15 minutes (by car and on foot).

25 minutes Admission Ticket Included

Corpus Christi Chapel

Visit the Corpus Christi Chapel, a unique Gothic structure established as a charnel—a two-story cemetery chapel with an ossuary—likely built even before construction began on the neighboring St. Barbara’s Cathedral. The lower floor served as a space for the reverent storage of bones, while the upper level was intended for services honoring the deceased. It’s unclear if the upper floor was ever fully completed, as the chapel gradually lost significance with the completion of St. Barbara’s Cathedral.
