Pillars at Cemetery Island San Michele. Basically an island of Venice dedicated to being a cemetary. Very eerie.

Why there is so much chaos in this tomb is beyond me. Mary and Jesus, however, were untouched.

I wasn't sure if I was allowed in this room or not, but the door wasn't closed properly and could be pryed open a little bit. I think this is the room were they house all the coffins and urns are kept before being placed out in public.
