The Window Closed Quickly

A few days later I am back at the school. (LINKKI) The open doors and keys bothered me, so I decided to have another look. Unsurprisingly the front doors had been closed and the keys were gone. Even the broken back door had received some fresh plywood. Sorry for the fingertip in the picture. AContinue reading “The Window Closed Quickly”

The Lights Are On, But No One Seems Home

Welcome to another familiar location. This is a view I haven’t presented that often of it. This one is probably more familiar looking. It’s the old school featured for the first time in 2022. A plan has been on for years to convert it into luxury apartments. Nothing has happened so far. The strange thingContinue reading “The Lights Are On, But No One Seems Home”

A Weekend Exploration Date Part VII

The final location on my list was an old elementary school for Swedish speaking kids. It was closed in 2022, when the kids moved to a larger school in the village. It was abandoned for more than a year before somebody bought it. But that doesn’t mean anything really. Old schools owned by private personsContinue reading “A Weekend Exploration Date Part VII”

A Weekend Exploration Date Part VI

The following location. I discovered it way back in 2020, when I was on my first Tour De Finland. This is the first time that I photographed it, however. There are two old large wooden buildings on the same lot. According to a sales brochure this one here is an old school from the 1920’s.Continue reading “A Weekend Exploration Date Part VI”

Another One Just Sitting

My adventures next took me to another school featured earlier. I’ve been here every spring, but here’s a gallery from 2021, which is the only one so far. Apparently I’ve just come here, realized that there’s still no way in and just gone on without taking any photos. And here’s one of the teacher apartmentContinue reading “Another One Just Sitting”

And There It Sits

So I had my new summer car. And I started the season like so many others. With a trip around the capital region checking out on locations I had seen so many times before. This here is the same elementary school featured earlier in 2021 and probably a few more times in lonely photos inContinue reading “And There It Sits”

A Traditional Season Start Part IV

The following location was the suggestion of my godson’s father. It was an old school, which had been used to educate Swedish speaking nurses. Built in the 1960’s, it was enlarged in the 1990’s and abandoned in 2017, when the school moved its operations elsewhere. The newest section of the school was thus in useContinue reading “A Traditional Season Start Part IV”

Business And Pleasure Go Well Together Again Part III

The following location was an elementary school built in 1977. It was closed in 2018 because of its bad condition. When these photos were taken the building had been abandoned for five years. The building was definitely abandoned, but well sealed. I still decided to try the traditional walkaround. That isn’t exactly right. Even theContinue reading “Business And Pleasure Go Well Together Again Part III”

The Final Moment Was An Unpleasant Surprise Part IV

Moving on to the final sections of the upstairs of this building. And finding another kitchen. The 1980’s look of the furniture was pretty staggering. The very messed up main stairway, which I didn’t climb in the earlier post. Moving on. It gets darker. But there were still more rooms. And they did follow theContinue reading “The Final Moment Was An Unpleasant Surprise Part IV”
