    The mummies of Illmersdorf are eleven mummified corpses, eight adults and two children and an infant, in ten coffins in the mummy crypt of the half-timbered church in Illmersdorf near Drebkau in Brandenburg. The mummies were created without the use of artificial mummification processes. Experts suspect that the bodies dried out and were thus mummified. Today the mummies from the period 1748 to 1821 are a tourist attraction. Five of the eleven mummies can be viewed through a glass pane. The mummies of Illmersdorf are the only ones in Lusatia and are considered the largest mummy treasure in Brandenburg.
