Czech Republic

Czech Republic pictures. The largest part of these pictures are about Prague: the charming capital city of the Czech Republic, with almost all its fairy tale old town surviving the centuries intact.
Some pictures depict the small town of Kutna Hora, whose most interesting sight is the Sedlec Ossuary, which is a museum showcasing bone sculptures (e.g. a chandelier which includes all the bones in the human body), made out of the bones of 40,000 people, created by a local woodcarver in 1870.
