palnny days of the abbey great fires
were kept blazing all might long for the
guidance of pilgrims. All Saints
chapel consists of an upper church and
a chapel-crypt. In the vestibule of the
upper portion is a memorial tablet in
the Bohemian language, placed there by
the Archaeological Society in honor of
the eminent man of letters, j. M. Rau-
tenkranc, who was pastor at Sedlec at
the beginning of the present century.
The crypt extends for some distance
under the graveyard, and is lined with
an innumerable quantity of human
skulls and bones, which have made 1t
one Of the curiosities of Bohemia, under
the name of Sedlec Ossuary. The al
tarS, columns, vaults and all other
architectural features, are made of
these tokens of mortality, which are also
arranged to form fantastic and gro
tesque decorations upon the walls. This
gruesome ornamentation was first done,
with the authorization of Abbot Hilger,
in the year 1861, by a lay brother,
whom tradition reports to have been a
blind man. At the restoration of 1870
some of these strange materials were
given new and more elaborate and
tasteful arrangement. Under the first
arch, directly opposite the entrance, is
to be seen the arms of the Schwarzen-
bergs, on a large scale, entirely made
out of skulls and bones of different
sizes. The mantle of the arms Is formed
by string of bones; the well known
bald Turks head Is a real skull, with
thin, little bones to represent the tuft
If hair etc.
