Tour Report: Recreation Home "Moss Lover's" [Revisit]

Only a month after the first visit to this abandoned recreation home together with my wife, I returned together with my good friend Nordgriller Urbex.
It was the first location of a three-day tour of the area. We had planned a couple more locations on this first day, but we got stuck in a traffic jam and since we still had a way to go to our "urbex-hotel" (a friend where we're staying whenever we're going exploring in the region of Germany), we decided to skip the other ones and only go for this one due to the nice decay.
It was really late in the afternoon when we got there. The sun was almost setting, so we already had to work with our flashlights in some parts of the building.
The warm twilight of late summer had hundreds, if not thousands, of frogs coming from the lake, and some of them had already reached the recreation home and were jumping around all over the place.
We were finished as the sun had set and the fog came from the lake which made for one or two nice outside shots as we left.

Tour Report: Butter Factory N.

After finishing our exploration of the abandoned inn, we still had a lot of time left, so my friend Lost Places in Schleswig-Holstein und Umland and I decided to check out a potentially cool, but also risky location, an old butter factory.
So we drove for about an hour, and upon arriving, we saw huge posters on the fence that the area was protected by a security service. Not very reassuring, but we wanted to go take a quick peek nonetheless. We found a place to park that couldn't be seen from the road or the factory building, so we were pretty sure that we wouldn't rise any suspicions.
When we got to the street side of the factory, we saw that there were only bushes seperating the street from the area. No fence, but a large, flat area where you could be spotted just like that. So we decided to take the harder, but less visible way and walk around about half the place to climb over a fence in the back.
One on the premises, we started looking for a way in, but it seemed that there was no access whatsoever. All doors and windows were tightly locked. But the place looked so interesting, we desperately wanted to find a way in...
...which we eventually did. I won't go into the details, but it involved climbing up a chimney and across roofs as well as unstable metal pipes and a courageous jump across an eternal abyss ;)
This way we were at least able to explore the main production and storage facility of the old butter factory. Some buildings remained inaccessible for us.
We didn't leave the way we came in - we left through one of the doors at ground level (which of course we locked behind uns again) and took the easy way through the bushes.

Although we haven't seen anything of a security service,I've heard that other explorers have made different experiences and weren't necessarily greeted as friends...

Tour Report: Old Wine Inn

Somewhere in the North of Germany lies this small abandoned inn right in the middle of a small village. About one year ago, my friend Lost Places in Schleswig-Holstein und Umland and I to go for a short tour on a rainy Sunday morning, and this location was our first stop.
Finding a place to park that didn't look too suspicious and wasn't too far away wasn't that easy. We decided to be bold and park in a nearby residential street.
After unpacking, we had to wait for someone walking his dog to be out of sight, and we quickly walked to the inn to check for an access point.
After our first look around, it didn't seem easy to get in - all the doors were locked and all the windows seemed closed as well.
Then, we had to hide again from a dow-walkign person passing us by, and from our hiding point, I spotted a window behind some really thick bushes. We had completely overlooked that one. So we walked over, and it was open! We hopped in and found a really nice place with some parts nicely intact and some full of really cool decay. The basement was really nice - there were still a bunch of unopened bottles of wine dating back as far as 1959.
