If your not interested in history, have a weak stomach, or claustrophobic then this is probably not the tour for you. Very interesting and gives you an insight on religious history.
very imformative, but not for the squeemish. easily accessed, staff were very knowledgable and were happy to discuss any questions i had. Most of the information was written in italian it would have been nice to be able to read who and how some of the people had died.
Well...it's a trek to get there...and not my sort of thing. Not exactly ghoulish, but a cadaver too far. I think that seeing the postcard would suffice.
A must-see in Palermo. Thousands of skulls, corpses, bones on display in this underground labyrinth... very fascinating. Look for the baby girl Rosalia Lombardo while you wander in the catacombs.
The best exhibition on how old friends meet with only skeletons left. If you want to get off the fright of what is left of human body after death, I recommended a visit. My visit was a few years earlier than Dec 2011 and who knows if you would meet me in there, not as a visitor but a showpiece.
