water treatment facility

this place seemed like it was impossible to get into at first, it's right along a relatively busy road on its south and west sides, plus high barbed wire fences. very out in the open and easy to be spotted




i took some time to walk around the entire perimeter to see if there were any fence openings or other ways in, but i found that there was a large creek surrounding the entire north side



defintely no way to cross the creek without swimming it and i wasn't THAT interested in getting into this place. but then i saw a pipeline that ran over the creek a little closer to the road



this seemed to be my only way in, but it was still pretty visible from the road, so i chilled for a while by the pipe until it got dark, then i crawled over it and got to the fence
lots of barbed wire and shit, but i walked around the perimeter of it until i found a good tree that i could climb high enough to hop the fence



my buddy on the tree


the factory grounds

okay now i was inside the fence, but i couldn't figure out a way to actually get into the damn place, until i saw a side door with a hole in it
the door was locked tight but the hole was big enough for me to fit through



the inside of the place was all kinds of fucked up, lots of people had been here before, lots of graffiti
i don't know how many years this place was left alone to rust, but it was like stepping into a time capsule
the whole place felt like death, the darkness inside was so intense at first, it's so weird moving your flashlight away from something and watching it totally disappear



the hole i came through and the first chamber




up the ladder to the second level of the first chamber with some swastikas




the second chamber had this huge machine in the middle of it, there were stairs to go up on top of it




some of the machinerey in the main building

the main building had the highest ceiling out of all of them, and the windows were so tall and thin, it was like a church
the sounds in this part really creeped me out, the whole building had become a giant pigeon's nest, and you could hear them up in the rafters, the sound would echo through the whole chamber
and the entire floor was covered in feathers and bird shit


f



some sort of mail room



lots of meters



wish i could have gotten some better footage here, i think one day i will go back again when it's still light out, and you can get a sense of the scale of some of these machines
there were a few sections that were completely underwater, one staircase just led straight down into it, i couldn't even see the bottom
