mummy

Italy is not only renowned for its art, architecture, and historical sites; it also boasts a number of intriguing locations housing mummies and skeletons. Central Italy and Sicily feature public mummy exhibits, often found in churches. These naturally preserved mummies offer a captivating — albeit macabre — experience. Therefore, they are generally not advisable for young children. While many of the well-known Christian catacombs, particularly those in Rome, have removed their bones from display, numerous fascinating sites remain for those interested in the eeriness of mummies and skeletons.
