Death leans forward, pipe in hand, blowing bubbles across the ceiling — a strange, almost playful memento mori carved into plaster by Johann Georg Leinberger around 1729. It's part of the Holy Grave Chapel at Michaelsberg Abbey in Bamberg, Germany.

An abandoned Roman Catholic church in northern England. Constructed in the 1960s during a period of transition within the Catholic Church, the design features contemporary architecture and beautiful glasswork.
On the western wall, a dalle de verre features coloured glass set into a concrete frame depicting religious iconography.
The church closed nearly 15 years ago; the failing roof needs costly repairs,

🏰 Château Secession, an abandoned chateau in France that appears filled with relics. Enigmatic and atmospheric, right?
Well, not quite. The collection seems to be a hobbyist's personal trove of cheap props and tat, rather than priceless artefacts. For example, the "cannon" was just a pipe balanced on some old cart wheels. The samurai sword was a cheap plastic child's toy, and the globe was likewise a modern trinket.

🏥The Red Cross Hospital, an abandoned sanatorium in Italy. Located atop a remote hill over 1,000 metres above sea level. In the years before antibiotics, facilities like this were the only treatment for many respiratory diseases.
The site closed in the 1980s. Today, metal beds stand in silent dormitories, and trees grow inside the bathrooms.

What will happen to abandoned buildings under ancap?
1) Youth often sneak into an abandoned building, which displeases many city dwellers: you never know what might happen. Can they, and in what way, organize its security, fence it off, or demolish it entirely? Would the installation of a fence by a concerned public be a restriction of the freedom of urban exploration enthusiasts?2) A group of squatters has settled in an empty cinema, arranged their own electricity (finding people on the free market who agreed to connect them), and lives there, […]
