On this tour, you'll experience the exterior grandeur of the church on a panoramic tour of the city. You'll walk the "little Charles bridge" to the Old Mint and the Ossuary, where legend has it that a handful of earth from Christ's grave was brought to Sedlec and scattered over the Ossuary, thus turning it into a pilgrimage site for believers from all over Central Europe.
