Former chemical factory, now one of the most famous abandoned places in Germany. Access is pretty easy but the risk of being seen is also high. And sometimes it is used as a filming location. Inside the factory hall are 4 tanks with graffitis from Plotbot Ken, unfortunately only 2/4 are left. But you can found some more paintings from him at this area. Be careful entering the roof! The concrete is a bit fragile in some places.

Fondé en 1899, cet énorme complexe industriel situé non loin de Berlin produisait du ciment. Après avoir connu une croissance rapide à partir de 1933 grâce aux programmes de réarmement nazis et à l’augmentation de l’activité de construction (autoroutes, abris anti-aériens et ouvrages militaires), l'usine est convertie en 1944 en lieu de production de bauxite nécessaire pour créer l'aluminium réclamé par l'effort de guerre.
En 1945, les forces soviétiques démantèlent l'usine et utilisent le site comme camp de prisonniers avant de le reconvertir en usine de production de phosphate.
La réunification allemande provoque l'agonie de l'activité industrielle sur le site qui périclite jusqu'à son arrêt définitif en 1999.
