Our 2020 New Year's tour took us to an abandoned village. Well, not a “real” village in that sense, but an abandoned pioneer camp of the former GDR.
We had already driven past it several times on our excursions, but never had the time to take a closer look - this time it was actually on our list.
We found an official parking lot not too far away and went straight to the large main gate. There was a small gate next to it. It was open, so we walked in at our leisure.
It was a really nice day. The winter sun was low, even though it was only 2pm, so we had some really nice light in places.
Of course, the buildings were mostly empty, and the vandals and local teenagers have had a "proper rampage" over the years.

The grounds were originally much larger - there was room for around 600 children. Nevertheless, we were able to get a good idea of what it once looked like here.
We explored the remaining huts and rooms and enjoyed the cool weather.
After a long New Year's Eve, the fresh air really did us good!
