It's a very small town east of Praha but it's very famous because of a church Sedlec Kostnice that used bones of 40,000 people for interior decoration.

People buried there attracted by the soil from Holyland. When the grave in front of the church overloaded, they dug up the bodies and used the bones for decoration.
