After the disappointment with the dairy processing plant, we next headed to a suburb where I knew was an abandoned school. The friend with whom I visited a local mental asylum a couple of years ago worked near the place and had tipped me about it.
Built in 1972 the school was closed in 2011. After that it was used by different companies and organizations until 2017 when it was deemed to be in a too bad condition. It was abandoned and is waiting for demolition.
My friend has tipped me about open windows and doors several times. He has also told me, that the older people at his former workplace are very eager to call the police if they see someone enter.
But I thought that the risk was worth taking. The school seemed like an interesting location.
As always with larger locations I began with a go around.
A canopy for rainy breaks.
A sealed entrance.
The pupils hadn’t been permitted to use it, though. They had to enter through the yard on the other side.
This is again plain bullying by adults. Even my primary school had entrances pupils weren’t allowed to use despite them being unlocked. Meanwhile teachers and other staff were using them like nothing.
Nature is slowly taking over.
Another closed entrance.
The final wing of the school with my beautiful summer car Alice on the parking lot. We have now gone around the entire building.
And boom, we are inside. A single broken classroom window provided an entrance.
This is, kids, what we call a mess.
The usual greetings.
So much for the first classroom. We now enter a nice, long corridor. But what’s by it will be a topic of the next post.
