What a very messed up place we have here. And although it doesn’t look very tempting, it indeed was. This here is the first hall of a former textile mill. When it opened in 1961 it was a state of the art facility weaving silk. After several ownership and productional changes it last produced workwearContinue reading “Slick As Silk Part I”

Who Would Want A Rural Hospital Part I
Time to visit a hospital. Don’t worry, I am fine. This is a former regional hospital, which was built in 1952 and enlarged in the late 1960’s or early 1970’s. The old part can be seen up ahead, the newer expansion is to the left. There is still one more wing from the 1990’s. AfterContinue reading “Who Would Want A Rural Hospital Part I”
The Volunteers Were Careless
Usually I am very careful with locations I am unsure of. If I’m not entirely sure that they are abandoned, I stay away. Of course sometimes I make mistakes, like I did with the abandoned looking one family house, where I encountered an old lady reading in the garden. I had been tipped about thisContinue reading “The Volunteers Were Careless”
The Oldest Was The Most Lasting
Another familiar looking sight: an old municipal home enlarged and turned into a nursing home, when a nearby mental asylum was completed and the mentally ill were moved there. As the area is full of active social and health care buildings, we start our tour from the back. The old part built in 1953 wasContinue reading “The Oldest Was The Most Lasting”
A Neverending School Part X
A lobby looking thing with lockers and sliding doors. How many kitchens can there be? Once again there wasn’t much left. Ok, so this is where institutional kitchen chefs were trained. Cold rooms and dressing rooms. Hopefully separately. Again everything useful has been removed. The space absorbs the flash pretty well. Looks like another formerContinue reading “A Neverending School Part X”
A Neverending School Part VIII
Let’s forget the gym for a while and continue along the thrashed yellow corridor. There were narrow windows near the roof. They had all been smashed. The sign of a meeting room. A small storage room. This one looks like yet another office room. It’s rare to see the door frames being torn loose. TheContinue reading “A Neverending School Part VIII”
A Neverending School Part VII
This area again looks surprisingly modern compared to the rest of the school. And it probably is the latest addition from the 2000’s. A theory classroom. It didn’t specify, which theory. Tina has been active here. A second classroom. The corner room looks like an office. Although a theory classroom, it looks like something hasContinue reading “A Neverending School Part VII”
A Neverending School Part VI
This looks like another office room. Vocational school power. More dark corridors. Trying to figure out what to study next. Finally some light. It’s much easier to photograph here than in the previous corridor. Looks like some sort of a laboratory. Interesting. The graffiti on the outside makes the room look like it’s a pool.Continue reading “A Neverending School Part VI”
A Neverending School Part V
Well, well, the electricity lab. An electricity lab with mattresses? This looks more like a lab. Although not much of it is left. It seems like they have measured something here. It looks like even some home appliances were tested here. And again it looks like a factory. And so does this room. There againContinue reading “A Neverending School Part V”
A Neverending School Part IV
After the construction department come of course the electronics department and logistics center. Here the rooms were much smaller. I wonder if those are real cables or a student practice work. There was more mess here than in the construction department. A toilet. I think the first one I have seen. That’s many years ofContinue reading “A Neverending School Part IV”
