6.Railroad Yard | Ohio

This railroad yard has always been more of a parking lot for older trains more than anything else. Part of the old McDonald Steel Corporation in McDonald Ohio, this yard has definitely seen better days.

The photographer of these images mentioned that the since U.S. Steel pulled out of the area in 1981, the locomotives have been in a state of decay. With no one bothering to finish the job of completely disassembling them or refurbish them.

It turns out that those big buildings next to the yard, have even more trains, waiting to be delivered across the USA.

5.Palace Theatre | Wales

I think this might be the first time we have ventured into Wales ! The Palace Theatre, located in Swansea was a traditional music hall built in 1888, under the name “the pavilion”

The theatre has a long and rich history, with the likes of Charlie Chaplin and Dan Leno entertaining patrons in the early years. Later on, Sir Anthony Hopkins starred in “Have A Cigarette”, his first professional debut.

In the 1970s the palace theatre became a nightclub, somehow along the way, the Palace Theater shut down, the now derelict building is a sad reminder of what used to be. There have been talks for restoring the unique building, but nothing concrete has been done yet.

4.Dospat Reservoir | Bulgaria

Located high in the Rhodope Mountains of Bulgaria, this reservoir is formed by a an electric dam.

The general area is by no means abandoned since it offers beautiful views and activities like fishing and hunting. But, there is this little house, in the middle of the manmade lake. Rumor has it, this derelict building has been haunted since the day it was built. Anyone care to shed some more light on the subject ? If you know the history behind it, please comment below !

3.Jackson Sanatorium | New York

Known as the Castle on the Hill, this sanatorium is located near the small city of Dansville in upstate New York. Surprisingly, it is one of the oldest buildings on our list, built in 1854, the castle on the hill served as a healing center and a vacation spot. A place to get away from the hustle and bustle.

Since then, the place has been opened and closed many times, by 1971, the Jackson Sanatorium closed its doors for the final time.

2. Bread Factory | Russia

Alright I will level with you, I don’t know much about this factory. Judging by the pictures, it was constructed in 1893.

I also know it is located in Novorossiysk, one of the few Russian cities to be honored as a “hero city”.

In antiquite, the city was known as Bata, which was an ancient greek colony. In the 1700s, it was under Ottoman rule, and since 1829, Novorossiysk has been an important part of Russia.

You can imagine that in a city as old as this, there are many random abandoned structures, and as it turns out, there is. From abandoned ships, to castles that are falling apart, this city has a lot to offer to any urban explorer.
