The Product Just Vanished Part II

This corridor was leading all the way up to the main entrance. The priorities of the town are a bit questionable. The floors, doors and walls have been demolished, but the school desks remain. Modern ventilation has been built at some point. Not all of the wires and pipes have been removed. Judging by theContinue reading “The Product Just Vanished Part II”

The Product Just Vanished Part I

So this is how it looks from this side. There’s a railroad running right behind the building. I’ve been watching it almost weekly from train windows for three years now wondering, what it is. And finally I have the chance to see it with my own eyes. I’ve always thought, that it is a publicContinue reading “The Product Just Vanished Part I”

Thanks To A Helpful Roof Part VI

The first room downstairs was fairly dark. This area was clearly related to the previous room. I think this is the former woodworking class of the school. And this must be the low wing built in the 1970’s. Thanks to its roof I managed to get in. And here we have the school kitchen. MaybeContinue reading “Thanks To A Helpful Roof Part VI”

Thanks To A Helpful Roof Part V

We begin the post with a very messy and small room with all kinds of paper. Office equipment. I can’t see, how the paint has been damaged this badly in just a few years. It does look like a classroom, but the library and computer class have already been explored. What can this be, then.Continue reading “Thanks To A Helpful Roof Part V”

Thanks To A Helpful Roof Part IV

Moving finally up the stairs. The second floor is quite small, only the size of the former teacher apartment wing, although there may be an attic above the classroom wing. There was a balcony in the stairway. I usually only find lost shoes, but here we have a lost ice skate. Its pair must beContinue reading “Thanks To A Helpful Roof Part IV”

Thanks To A Helpful Roof Part III

Instead of moving upstairs or downstairs I first explored this small dark room. The sink would hint that it’s been a cleaning closed, but there’s also the standard of the local co-operative store here. Again things are in a peculiar order in this school. There was also the standard of a bank, which fell victimContinue reading “Thanks To A Helpful Roof Part III”

Thanks To A Helpful Roof Part II

The post changes but the mess continues. Here we have old film rolls and stuff. This looks like a former office or storage room. A lot of LP Discs. And a very familiar collection of books. Lots of old slides. Vandals had been roaming in the school for ages and it was in a completeContinue reading “Thanks To A Helpful Roof Part II”

Thanks To A Helpful Roof Part I

Well, well, well. Isn’t it a village school that has been featured here before. The local art school students have since decorated the building, which has stood empty since 2018. The paintings do give the building a nicer appearance than broken windows. A similar technique was used in a shoe and flower store I photographedContinue reading “Thanks To A Helpful Roof Part I”

The Institute That Refused To Go Down

Back in a familiar location. This is the workers’ institute I’ve photographed in 2014, 2016 and 2019. In 2017 I photographed there with a dancer friend of mine. The building got a demolition permit way back in 2014, but the owner couldn’t afford to demolish it. It was later sold to a new owner, whoContinue reading “The Institute That Refused To Go Down”

Removing The Curse Part V

After exploring the school’s two first floors and surprisingly the basement, there was only the attic left. Another large piece. Who does this. There was also a small lobby in the attic. The stairs to the left lead to the attic of the wooden part of the school. There was a small room at theContinue reading “Removing The Curse Part V”
