So. This abandoned train station in Marburg, Germany. I found it about half a block from my apartment, wedged between some office buildings and a hippie commune/artists' collective. There were padlocks on all the doors, which was kind of funny as each and every window had been knocked out, there were numerous holes in the building's sides, and some of the doors were missing hinges anyway and you could just lift them away from their frames and wriggle through. And, as I would later discover, the office workers and hippies were all apathetic towards trespassers anyway. Climb through a broken window in front of twelve people, no one would stop you or even really notice you. I don't know what the padlocks were for.

These pictures were all taken the day I first discovered the train station, when it still felt kind of haunted and mysterious to me. Eventually, it became a favorite place to go and read, and eat wild blackberries from the wild blackberry bushes, and watch the sky through the broken roof. I'll miss it.
