    Welcome to the Aitre St Maclou in Rouen! The cemetery was full in the XVIth century, so they built a nice building to keep the old corpses on the upper floors, all windows opened to everything can be nicely ventilated. 200 years later, they turned it into a school.

      That’s actually kinda interesting, sorta the opposite of the Paris catacombs. Also shout-out to the bone churches.
