About this ebook
Buried deep beneath the outskirts of the city, the London catacombs are known for being as beautiful as they are eerie.
Although they are no longer in use today, these tunnels document an important part of the city's history. Discover the London catacombs, including who was laid to rest there, why they closed, and more.
