Abandoned morgues

1. Unknown morgue is not known where. Photographer: AndreasS.

The photographer did not want to give any specific information about this place, but noted that this mertuary was abandoned in 2009.

2. Ellis Island Morgue. Ellis Island, New York, USA. Photographer: Vilseskogen.

In this hospital, more than three thousand people have died since its opening in 1892 to 1954, when the building was abandoned. Why so much? The fact is that Ellis Island served as a kind of "gateway" to America for millions of emigrants from all over the world. Naturally, many of them were sick.

A great shot from photographer Rusty, who accompanied this photo with a comment about the special atmosphere of the morgues: "When you find yourself in such a place, the thoughts involuntarily arise in your mind about what terrible things happened here once".

4. Unknown morgue, Great Britain. Photographer: sj996.

And again the old woman England with her old mothuaries. In the photo there are freezers for storing corpses.

5. Morgue at Cambridge Military Hospital. Cambridge, Great Britain. Photographer: Don Kiddick.

Military hospital and its morgue. The area around this morgue is still patrolled by soldiers, so photographer Don Kiddik had to make a lot of efforts to take this picture.

6. St. Peter's Hospital Mortuary. The town of Sarri, Great Britain. Photographer: Lula TaHula.

Another British morgue. The table in the center of the photo was clearly used for the work of autopsy.

7. Harold Wood Hospital Morgue. Essex County, United Kingdom. Photographer: Romany WG.

These rooms look like they just made an autopsy to some corpse that is far from the first freshness. Just look at these hideous puddles on the floor. It is possible that in the puddles - a cocktail of formaldehyde, organic waste and water, which was washed by the body.

Gloomy morgue in a gloomy English hospital. In the interior of the building transformed an unpleasant green color - his "echoes" reached even the autopsy room.

9. Beelitz-Heilstatten Morgue. The suburbs of Berlin, Germany. Photographer: .Andre Joosee, Batram

The mortuary of the German clinic, built in 1898 and abandoned in 1994. It was one of the largest hospital complexes in the country, and during the First World War, about twelve and a half thousand soldiers visited. In 1916 the wounded Adolf Hitler was treated here. Alas, the future Fuhrer did not reach the local morgue.

10. Mortuarium Schoonselhof. Antwerp, Belgium. Photographer: Andre Joosee.

This morgue was for some reason abandoned a few years ago. Hopefully, no one has since used unattended surgical instruments.
