Getting there was easy using public transportation; since we had purchased our tickets in advance, entry was quick—we didn’t have to wait—and we were promptly provided with the equipment needed to begin the guided tour. The tour is easy and very educational; in particular, it’s clear that they’ve taken children into account, as there are specific points of interest designed just for them. Access to the crypt itself is easy. The decorations made from human bones reflect the respect they had for their brothers; since they removed their skeletal remains to make room for burying other Capuchins, they gave those remains a final resting place that was also very carefully tended in every respect—even striving to make them part of the art— and I believe it’s part of a commemoration, a recognition, and a respect for what their lives were like, as they remain within the crypt itself. An excellent tour, recommended for those who aren’t easily disturbed; it’s easily accessible and straightforward to navigate, and it helps you understand a little more about who the Capuchins were and what they did.
