This is a pretty weird complex of halls next to eachother. Despite the emptiness in most of the halls, it's very interesting to see the contrast between the old and modern architecture. There was also a small part of the building where I found some old drawings and film rolls, which I found to be the most interesting thing about this location.
It's not hard to find an entrypoint, but it is in front of a busy road, so you probably will be seen by a few drivers. There was a part where the building was almost collapsing, since the construction was only made of wood, so be careful when you hear some creaking sounds.
A very weird, but welcome location to say the least.

Vroeger draaide deze fabriek op windmolens. In 1895 gingen ze over op stoom. In 1916 vond een flinke uitbreiding plaats voor nog meer productie. In de jaren 50,60 en 70 was het de grootste fabriek van de regio.De fabriek ,het oudste gedeelte, werd in 1975 gesloten.
Daarna werden er verschillende hallen ernaast bij gebouwd .
Deze hallen zijn leeg. In het voormalige kantoor is nog een muurschildering van de oude omgeving te zien.
Van het oudste gedeelte waar we in konden komen ,is het dak gedeeltelijk ingestort.
