Italy’s most ghoulish site

Post n°191 pubblicato il 18 Gennaio 2015 da o.radovicka

Italy’s most ghoulish site, this crypt houses thousands of corpses, fully dressed and hung from hooks. The practice began in 1599 when local priests mummified a holy monk and allowed visitors. Soon regular residents of Palermo wanted to be remembered in this fashion. Bodies are arranged by gender and profession; their facial _xpressions often eerily visible.
