And yet again a familiar location. This is a former village school, which I found in 2021 when it was getting dark and I was busy trying to make it to another location. I visited this place for the first time very late in the night in 2022 when in a hurry. Back then there was no entry.
But after driving an hour or two from the old hospital, getting a good rest next to a lake I approached the place for a second attempt.
It seemed as if nothing had changed.
Even the old and strangely low canopy was still there.
The main entrance was locked. The gym wing can be seen behind it.
But the side door was open. This was entry number 45 that summer and number nine of what I consider big catches. My big catch percentage was actually quite high.
The teachers’ study was right next to the entrance. I believe, that this entrance was solely permitted for them, although it was on the opposite side of the yard from their apartment building, which was still in use.
The traditional buzzer.
Empty rooms here. The teachers have cleaned after themselves.
The crack on the wall seems to reach deeper than the paint.
A small peek behind the door revealed another exit and a cupboard – or probably a toilet.
The main space of the teachers featured a small kitchen.
The closed door is the main switchboard. The open one after that is a dressing room.
Then we have a cleaning closet. And the kitchen.
I think this place could use a plumber.
Entering the kitchen. There’s still a lot of equipment left.
The corridor ends at the main entrance.
And this is the canteen.
Are those electric wires?
Tasty memories from school years? Somehow my memories of school food really aren’t that tasty.
But I do remember the plastic plates of the primary school in the 1990’s. This school was closed in 2009, but it seems, that traditions have lived on.
The principals of fresh milk from the local dairy company. If I’m not incorrect, it has ceased to use that name back in 1991. Things didn’t change much in this school after that, it seems.
A view towards the kitchen through the counter. There’s another exit there. That’s the pair of the other side exit seen in the first picture, which leads to the teachers’ study.
A closer look at the plates on the counter. The juice has been canned in 2013 and expired in 2014, so either it is of the owner’s or vandals have been roaming here for almost 10 years.
A small bathroom. It starts to look like somebody has stolen the pipes.
A dressing room! Let’s see, if this is interesting or not.
Oh, the boys’ dressing room. Not interesting at all, I’ve spent enough time in those. Let’s see, if there’s something more interesting around.
