Capuchin Crypt in Rome?
 
I had read somewhere online that the Capuchin Crypt in Santa Maria della Concezione on Via Veneto closed last December 2003 for renovations with no posted reopen date. Does anyone know if the Capuchin Crypt still closed? I'll be traveling to Rome the first week of April and want to see the crypt. Thanks!

Oh no! I really want to see this. It brings to mind some strange things when you think of renovating..... Yikes!

Yes, sorry to report that the "church of the bones" is currently closed. We went over there on Monday 3/15.
There was a sign that stated they closed for repairs in Dec 2003. No info on a reopening.
