Palermo

Over 8000 bodies lie buried in the catacombs at Palermo. The first interred was a friar in 1599, the catacombs continued to take in the deceased until 1920, the last body being that of a 2 year old girl. Many are remarkable preserved, others now so much. Some are set in poses that allowed their families to visit them if they desired.
