Prague Travel Forum

Need some advice. My family and I will land in Prague Wednesday evening, which for us basically means we will have two days to tour the city; Thursday and Friday. Saturday we leave for Budapest. While in Prague, should I visit the Bone Church? It's a hour drive to the church then an hour back. Maybe I could visit the Bone Church on the way to Budapest? Should I just skip it? Johnny

Do you mean the Sedlec Ossuary? I found it somewhat disturbing. Unless you have a particular macabre gothic fascination for such stuff, I would say your limited time is much better spent in Prague.

(If, however, you do like to hang about in graveyards whilst reading Edgar Allen Poe and listening to the Sisters of Mercy, it would be a must-see).

i would certainly agree with Zizkov that two days is too little time to take advantage of all Prague has to offer. our highight was the jewish museum, but there are so many things to visit that taking a half day for the "bone church" will cost you more time than it is worth.

Bone church is very interesting, it is something you probably wont see anywhere else. But, if you have just two days, I guess its better to spend them whole in Prague, there is so much to see there!

There are two bone churches in Portugal... ;)

I would spend both days in Prague. The city is just so beautiful and there's plenty for you to occupy your two days, and believe it, two days is short.

With 2 days, definitely not. There's way too much and see and do in Prague itself and 2 days isn't much.

Personally, I didn't see what the interest in the bone church was but Kutna Hora itself is very nice and I really liked the silver mine which is worth a visit there in itself.
