The swimming pool was already built in 1958. In the early 2000s, the city council decided, in future to operate only one of the two swimming pools of the town for cost reasons, which is why Kammerwoog was closed in 2004. In 2014 there were plans by a development association to rehabilitate the...

It was apparently lost in a bet by the Bagot family and it was later sold to the District Health Authority, becoming...

After discovering this place, reading a news article I decided to take a look. Theres not a great deal of history on this place other than the fact it was used as a home for ww2 soldiers after coming back from war. It's been home to several owners of the years however the place has fallen into...

Hopefully the first of many explores over here, not as good as i was expecting but still a nice little wander. Did this before moving on to Milner's Tower which was pretty dull tbh but if any of the pics from that turn out alright will get a report of that up as well.

I will put up a report on the first...
