An estimated 22,000 people are said to have been buried over the centuries beneath the cathedral square of St. Pölten, Austria, and forensic experts are now explaining what these skeletons reveal about the past. Journalist Florian Klenk and Vienna forensic professor Christian Reiter discuss the finds, covering how autopsies and bone analysis reconstruct historical lives, diseases and burial practices in the Lower Austrian city.
