Finally after three years we meet again! I visited Beelitz back in 2011 when I just started exploring abandonements (view my set here www.preciousdecay.com/index.php/portfolio/beelitz-heilsta...) At that time I was less experienced and the location made that much of an impression to me, that I knew I had to go back there once. And finally this moment has come. This place is in my opinion one of the ancestors of urban exploration. Pure decay, barely touched by vandals, in buildings which breathe history. This complex was built in the end of the 19th century and was used as a sanatorium for patients with lung tuberculoses. The buildings are surrounded by forest and the architecture was very modern for these times. Equiped with balcony's where patients could enjoy suntherapy and other revolutionary therapies took place here. It was mainly the poor people who suffered from tuberculoses, but if you were either poor or rich: Everybody received the same treatment. Patients were given lots of fresh air, sunshine and excellent food. The women were seperated from the men to avoid mass infection. The buildings were even built in a way that the washing area is situated in the women's building and the coal house was near the men's building. In the 1st and 2nd world war, the sanatorium was used as military hospital for the German forces. Even Adolf Hitler has been a patient here when he was treated for a wounded leg. During the 2nd world war, the place was heavily bombed by the allied forces. When the war was over, Beelitz was occupied by the Russian forces for a long time. It has been in use as a military hospital until the Russians left in the early 1990's. Since then it has been left abandoned. When you walk here, you can almost feel what has happened between these walls.
