This was an eerie place: Capela dos Ossos ("Chapel of Bones") in the especially cool city of Evora. The walls and the columns are built with the bones of 5000 monks in the 1200's. It was hard to grasp that all of the skulls and bones are real. At the entrance, there is a script that says, "We the bones are waiting for yours" or something creepy like that. It was really cool to see, though.
