Hey, @off-the-rails.
This was a pretty fascinating trip through an abandoned building, given that it hasn't been used other than for a canvas for various artists. Which, you're art, a lot of the art is pretty amazing, especially some of the black and white art.
That hole in the wall with the boots at the end was kind of eerie. :)
Any idea after it had been used by both the Nazis and the Soviets why it wasn't kept up and at least used for something? i would think it would have some kind of value—location, size—something.
I guess maybe people just want to move on and put the not-so-happy past behind them. Or, maybe there just wasn't any interest or other uses for it outside of a military base. Amazing how that happens.
I don't read German, but I'm guessing the sign at the beginning of the video is a warning of some kind?
Anyway, the video was very good, like a walk of discovery. Congratulations on the curie trail upvotes. Well deserved. :)
Nice one Glen, thank you for your comment, and I'm happy you found my video interesting!
There are quite a few abandoned buildings around Berlin that could be better used, instead of just sitting idle. But everything comes down to money. Most probably the building is listed, and therefore an investor will have his hands tied up with some 'jobsworth' from the local Council.
Usually in this case, the land owner will just leave the building to fall to bits. I'm not sure if the land here is privately owned, or state owned.
and yeah, the sigh at the beginning said "Forbidden" if my memory serves me right.
My German friends would say "If its forbidden, its fun"
