Außerhalb eines kleinen belgischen Dorfes findet man eine große Halle in der Dutzende historische Kutschen und Fahrzeuge stehen.
Nachdem wir, relativ einfach (dank eines guten Tipps) den Zugang gefunden hatten, verschlug es uns erstmal die Sprache.

Es liegt eine dicke Staubschicht auf allem und durch die Decke strahlt das Licht orange, was dem ganzen noch eine besondere Stimmung verleiht.
Viele der Kutschen sind kunstvoll verziert und man kann sich gut vorstellen wie sie damals genutzt wurden.

Fast alle Fahrzeuge sind aus Armeebeständen und stammen teilweise noch aus dem 2. Weltkrieg.
Es gab hier mehrere Mercedes-Benz L 3000 die, lt. Typenschild, 1936 gebaut wurden.

Auf meiner Homepage gibt es weitere Info´s zu diesem Fahrzeugtyp.
Auch Omnibusse, Kutschen mit Kufen und Feuerlöschpumpen standen in dieser Halle.

Eine dieser Pumpen wurde von Deutz gebaut. Sie war so alt, dass man Köln dort noch mit „C“ (Cöln) geschrieben hat.
Der Anblick war schon sehr beeindruckend.

Allerdings mussten wir sehr leise sein, da in der Nebenhalle, die nur durch ein Tor getrennt war, mehrere Personen am Arbeiten waren.

Das komplette Album, mit 66 Bildern und auch die Historie des L 3000 findet ihr hier: www.tomvandutch.de/hangar-du-baron

Le Hangar du Baron is een zeer exclusieve en zeer mooie oude locatie. Het is wel een beetje een kat en muisspel tussen de eigenaar(s) en de urbexers. Het is een moment van gelukkige ene moment is die open en andere moment is die weer dicht. Tijdens ons bezoek hadden we gelukkig dat we een ingang konden vinden. Eenmaal binnen stonden we aan de grond genageld van verbazing wat er in deze hangar allemaal is achtergebleven. Oude voertuigen, oude legerauto’s. Maar de pronkstukken van deze locatie waren toch wel de vele achtergelaten prachtige koetsen.

We kregen mee als tip dat we ons bezoek zo kort mogelijk moeten houden. Mijn partner en ik hebben ons niet echt aan die tip gehouden. Terwijl we bezig waren met foto’s maken en het zoeken naar het perfecte en unieke shots zijn we volledig de tijd uit het oog verloren. Keken we naar het uur, er waren 2 uren en half verstreken. Echt bepaald kort kun je dit niet noemen. We besloten dan maar richting huiswaarts te kregen, waar de echte uitdaging op ons stond te wachten selecteren en uitzoeken van de beste foto’s.

Hangar du Baron is net alsof je een stap terug in de tijd doet omringd door prachtige koetsen en oude auto’s. ik denk dat deze locatie bij veel urbexers hoog op het lijstje staat, zo ook bij ons. We hadden begrepen dat deze locatie dicht was, het is dat deze locatie bij ons op de route lag dus besloten we een kijkje te gaan nemen. Na de omgeving eens goed in ons op te hebben genomen, besloten we een rondje om het terrein te lopen. Met geluk! Het raam wat eerst dicht zat was open. Het was een beetje klimmen om binnen te komen, maar eenmaal binnen kon je deze prachtige koetsen bewonderen. Het nadeel is dat alles vrij kort op elkaar staat en er geen ruimte is om er door heen te lopen. Top locatie! 

Hangar du Baron is like stepping back in time surrounded by beautiful carriages and old cars. I think this location is high on the list of many urbexers, including us. We understood that this location was closed, it is that this location was on our route so we decided to take a look. After taking a good look at the surroundings, we decided to walk around the site. With luck! The window that was closed before was open. It was a bit of a climb to enter, but once inside you could admire these beautiful carriages. The disadvantage is that everything is quite close together and there is no space to walk through it. Top location!

This location was one of the trickiest ones we've done so far. We first went a week earlier but because of the rain, it was simply too hard to get inside. The next week we had better luck. Of all the locations we'd done so far, this one was definitely one of the prettiest locations so far.
Once inside you can see lots of different modes of transportations, from carriages to a boat, to trucks, to a bus and even heavy artillery. There's something to see around every corner. We did however get the impression that the carriages were being renovated. There were some that were completely worn down but others had been restored to close to their original state.
All in all, we spend three hours revelling at the magnificence of this place.

In einer kleinen Halle eines rießen Industriekomplexes werden diese Fahrzeuge und Kutschen eingelagert.
Wir mussten uns sehr ruhig verhalten, da in einem anliegenden Hallenteil gearbeitet wurde.
Da ich feststellen musste, dass auf verschiedenen Aufnahmen von verschiedenen Zeitpunken sich FAhrzeuge bewegten, einige fehlten und neue hinzukamen, gehe ich nun davon aus, dass es sich um ein Zwischenlager handelt.
Jemand restauriert die Fahrzeuge vermutlich oder handelt mit ihnen.

NL:

Wat een super lokatie is dit zeg, echt heel bijzonder. Wij hadden het geluk dat de lokatie weer open was.
Er staan allemaal oude koetsen en voertuigen. met een dikke laag stof. Ben wel benieuwd hoe lang deze blijven staan, het lijkt erop dat de voertuigen/koetsen worden opgeknapt.
Ook zijn er al koetsen en voertuigen weg gehaald of verplaats, door oudere foto’s van mede urbexers.
We besloten om hier niet te lang binnen te blijven, wat we hadden gehoord dat de eigenaar regelmatig langs komt om te gaan kijken.

EN:
What a great location this is, really very special. We were lucky that the location was open again.
There are all old carriages and vehicles, with a thick layer of dust.
I am curious how long these will remain, it seems that the vehicles/carriage are being refurbished.
Also, carriages and vehicles have already been removed or moved, due to older photos of fellow urbexer's.
We decided not to stay in here too long, which we had heard the owner comes over regularly to have a look.

Assoupi sous une bonne couche de poussière, caché dans un vieil hangar à l’abri des regards, un impressionnant amoncellement de calèches et de véhicules en tous genres…. C’est une partie de l’incroyable collection du Baron, répartie à ce que l’on dit dans trois lieux différents.

Un personnage haut en couleurs, ce baron… L’histoire raconte qu’il aurait quitté la France avec armes et bagages pour éluder l’impôt... Il fallait montrer patte blanche pour voir une sélection de ses plus beaux carosses exposés dans une dépendance de son château… Décédé il y a quelques années, on imagine que la collection ne tardera pas à être dispersée…
