Industrial activity started on this land in 1882 and the factory was one of the main pump producers in Europe at some point. In WW2, the army seized the factory, so the pumps are replaced with weapons and bomb shells on the production line. A very small part of the factory still operates today, but most of it was sold for scrap. Still, the complex is worth a visit, as most of the buildings are still standing and you can find chemical containers, old equipment and even books lying around.

A lot of maybe toxic chemicals were left behind by the previous owners.
In some places there was looked like azbestos on the ground (near the main factories).
The new owners started demolishing.

Romanian

Fabrica de pompe nucleare Aversa a început în 1882 şi producea valţuri, ciocane mari, uruitori de ştiuleţi, site plane, filtre pentru mori, cântare, batoze, vopsele şi multe altele. În timpul celor două războaie mondiale, producţia civilă a fost înlocuită cu cea de război: piese de mitralieră, branduri, răngi, toarnă corpuri de bombe etc. În iunie 1948 a fost naţionalizată, iar în 1977 a atins vârful producţiei, cu 38.000 de angajaţi care produceau peste 75.500 de pompe. Cu timpul, fabrica îşi pierduse din succes, în 1990 trece prin multe privatizări eşuate, iar in 2012 a dat faliment.

The Aversa nuclear pump factory began in 1882 and produced large hammers, mill filters, scales, paints, and more. During the two world wars, civilian production was replaced by war production: machine gun parts, crowbars, bomb bodies, etc. In June 1948 it was nationalized, and in 1977 it reached the peak of production, with 38,000 employees producing over 75,500 pumps. Over time, the factory had lost its success, in 1990 it went through many failed privatizations, and in 2012 it went bankrupt.
