I visited Las Palmas Cathedral to see a truly chilling sight: a mummified bishop preserved in a glass coffin since 1857. For over 169 years, his skeletal visage has been on display, a silent witness to centuries passing.
Inside the coffin, his decayed features, sunken eyes, and eerily intact hands make it feel like he’s watching visitors even today. It’s both fascinating and unsettling—a glimpse into history frozen in time.
Have you ever seen something like this in person?
