Urbex – Café Mousel
Abandoned bistro somewhere in Luxembourg. I know nothing about this beautiful little bistro. I don’t know when or why it’s been left abandoned, but I knew that there was something very interesting in it: a small bowling alley !

Urbex – Alla Italia
Abandoned thermal institute somewhere in Belgium. I wouldn’t have called this place Alla Italia, but the urbex community loves to give strange nicknames to the abandoned places, so the guy who found that place called it Alla Italia. Probably due to the beautiful painted ceillings and the columns that somehow reminded him of the italian architecture.
Urbex – Grand Hôtel Regnier
Abandoned hotel somewhere in Belgium. This luxury hotel has been built around 1904 and must have been really majestic in its time. I don’t know for how long it’s been left abandoned but probably for a long time looking at how decayed it is. One can easily imagine the magnificent receptions this hotel must have seen.
Gallery update: Villa Cannaert
I’ve updated the gallery of the Villa Cannaert with some new pictures as I paid a new visit to this abandoned hotel/restaurant. The reason I went back there is that I’ve been told the hotel part was now accessible. As I hadn’t seen this part of it, I decided to go back and take some pictures of it.
Urbex – Auberge des Sphinx
Abandoned restaurant somewhere in Belgium. I haven’t any informations concerning this restaurant. I found it while looking for another place. It seems to have been abandoned quite recently about one year ago I’d say. Luckily, it is still in a quite good condition, there are no traces of vandalism, except for the copper thieves that have left their marks…
Urbex – Lost skate
Abandoned ice skating rink somewhere in Belgium. This place is located in an ancient exhibition hall that has been inaugurated in 1939. The architecture is typical of that era and it seems to be on its way to get a protected status. From what I know, it has been closed in 2011 because of security problems due to the lack of maintenance. The local ice hockey team was training there as one can guess by looking at the the floor of the rink.
Urbex – Piscine Art Deco
Abandoned swimming pool somewhere in Belgium. This small swimming pool is a beautiful place built in an Art Deco style. I don’t know much about it, but it seems to have been part of a school complex which is being demolished at the moment. Fortunately, it seems that the swimming pool won’t be demolished.
Urbex – Villa Cannaert
Abandoned hotel/restaurant somewhere in Belgium. I visited this place early in the morning of a beautiful winter day. It was a luxury place, a four star hotel/restaurant if I believe the placard in front of the street. It has seen many well-known people, including the king of Belgium himself.
