3095_wall_in_chapel_of_bones

This is one of the walls in another little claim to fame for Evora - the Chapel of Bones.
Local monks tried to make a point with what they saw as overly materialistic attitudes
by building this chapel out of bones and skulls. At first it's interesting, then it gets creepy.
