Lonely Planet review for Capela dos Ossos

A more ghoulish attraction lies behind the church. The 19th-century Capela dos Ossos was built from the bones and skulls of over 1000 monks as a blackly reverent reminder of earthly impermanence, and the ultimate in recycling. There’s a similar chapel at Évora.
