A window, how tempting. And magically we have teleported inside. By ‘we’ I mean me and my friend, who decided to invite me to stay in the guest room of their family’s home, when they heard that I was nearby. They told me they knew some abandoned buildings nearby, so we went to explore themContinue reading “Enabling A New Experience”

The House Behind The Game Fence Part II
Moving further in the messy, primitive and damaged rooms I arrive in what looks like the kitchen. Again I suspect that the 1990’s abandonment doesn’t make sense. The kitchen contains a large baking oven and a wood powered stove. And only a small, portable electric stove, which also is very old. Not only very old,Continue reading “The House Behind The Game Fence Part II”
The House Behind The Game Fence Part I
A game fence by a busy Finnish highway. And a gate, which asks to be closed. The fellow urbexer, who I met the previous summer and who shares their discoveries with me, calls this place ‘The House Behind The Game Fence’. That’s why I’ll also call it that way. I already found this location whenContinue reading “The House Behind The Game Fence Part I”
Not Used What It Was Meant For Part XIV
And there it is. The entrance to the final wing of the building. That chair has gone through a lot. Cute kitchen tiles. Either this wing has been the caretaker’s apartment or just a technical space of the factory. But it has definitely had a special purpose back in the days. Whatever the reason hasContinue reading “Not Used What It Was Meant For Part XIV”
Not Used What It Was Meant For Part XIII
More contents of the attic storage. The inhabitants had left a surprising amount of valuable looking furniture behind. There was also the traditional rooftop access. Again I declined. So it was sort of time to go back. One final look from the courtyard side. And now I’m back at the cathedral wing with the bigContinue reading “Not Used What It Was Meant For Part XIII”
Not Used What It Was Meant For Part XII
Oh! A red bucket! Oh, an almost intact mirror. But why is my left pocket so full? Another kitchen. A newspaper from 2005. And another kitchen. And another living room. Here the floor is surprisingly plastic, and years of neglect, freezing temperatures and unauthorized steps have turned it into crumbled pieces of plastic. Three DoorsContinue reading “Not Used What It Was Meant For Part XII”
Not Used What It Was Meant For Part X
The entrance to the side stairway and the smaller side of the ground floor. But that looks like an exit. I’m not leaving yet, am I? Well, surely not. There’s still one more full floor to explore. A lot of antique furniture blocking the way. A view from the balcony. The low wing. I alreadyContinue reading “Not Used What It Was Meant For Part X”
Not Used What It Was Meant For Part IX
The cupboards have taken a big hit. Books by Mauri Sariola. I’ve never seen them anywhere else than in abandoned buildings. The kitchen with red walls. A VHS called Goose-Matti. Doesn’t look very tempting to me. This looks more like my thing. I even had some of those Topps cards with the stuff I gotContinue reading “Not Used What It Was Meant For Part IX”
Not Used What It Was Meant For Part VII
The corridor goes on and on, and all the pipes have been removed. The building really felt like being endlessly long. A school test about the police force in Finland. They’re asking how many policemen there are, and who’s the chief of the Finnish police. Interesting. Another apartment. Looks like this one has been theContinue reading “Not Used What It Was Meant For Part VII”
Not Used What It Was Meant For Part VI
A small toilet in the corridor. It looks like the water pipes have been torn away from the floor. Maybe they intended to renovate them but ran out of rescources. A bag to another supermarket. Not a direct competitor to the previous one, though. Another round window. There were several in the building. The cathedralContinue reading “Not Used What It Was Meant For Part VI”
