I next stumbled upon a small storage room. This was also, where the schools PA-system was located. Turns out, that they were very organized here. The closet to the left contains grid notebooks, big notebooks and small notebooks, the one to the right contains miscellaneous notebooks. This closet contained orienteering equipment. I mean really? AndContinue reading “The School Of Many Uses Part VII”

The School Of Many Uses Part VI
For some reason I decided to take my way back the first floor corridor to the main stairway seen in the far right end of the picture. The reason was probably, that I realized that I had skipped the handcraft class annex with the green curtains. Now these old sewing tables with old Singers, whichContinue reading “The School Of Many Uses Part VI”
The School Of Many Uses Part V
And so it looks like I found the home economics class. Is that small thing over there really a fridge? Recipe books. This looks too familiar from my school years. Our class was divided into kitchen groups and we would cook stuff together for a full school year. A slide showing different kinds of sieves.Continue reading “The School Of Many Uses Part V”
The School Of Many Uses Part IV
The first thing that greeted me upstairs was another poor, thrashed harmonium. Considering that I had already found two behind the gym, I found the number of these quite large for such a small school. First floor corridor. The fire services have probably used the school as their practise ground, as the doors have beenContinue reading “The School Of Many Uses Part IV”
The School Of Many Uses Part III
The logical next step would be taking the stairs to the next floor, but I decided to check the small hallway to the right first. What I found were the stairs to the basement, which once again was a no go for me. But there was something else. The stairs to the basement are toContinue reading “The School Of Many Uses Part III”
The School Of Many Uses Part II
And so I make my way back to the main lobby. The text on the wall says extra equipment. Apparently the extra equipment has been removed. There was only one way to go on the ground floor. It was this dark corridor with lots of bins. At the end of the corridor was the woodworkingContinue reading “The School Of Many Uses Part II”
The School Of Many Uses Part I
This lovely shot is taken through the window of an intercity train. I was serious about what I said about not letting interesting locations slip through my hands anymore. I had read about a cute little former school outside a regional town about to be demolished and decided to pay it a visit. Before myContinue reading “The School Of Many Uses Part I”
The Fish Finger School Part XV
Back to the lobby again. This is the place, where you can either descend down to the main lobby or go up the split stairs. Another look back towards the main entrance. How many have I managed to take during this visit? My guess is, that I have just managed to find the teachers’ study.Continue reading “The Fish Finger School Part XV”
The Fish Finger School Part XIV
Returning on my own tracks back towards the main stairway. Old biology and calculus books in addition to an energy quiz. An assignment too familiar. The poor pupil had to read a book and answer questions in the role of the main character of this book. I hated assignments like this. The corridor led toContinue reading “The Fish Finger School Part XIV”
The Fish Finger School Part XIII
The left side with the window at the end of the stairs looked more tempting. Like in many other locations, the amount of vandalism declined higher up the building. A look through the window. The main entrance is on the left side of this building. The language house is on the opposite side of theContinue reading “The Fish Finger School Part XIII”
