Located in western Germany, these structures seem straight out of a science fiction movie. There are 24 of them, but they are only horticultural greenhouses. The site once belonged to the neighboring monastery. In 1985, it was sold to an institute specializing in helping the long-term unemployed. In 1987, the institute built the complex which then became part of a reintegration program to provide training in commercial gardening to unemployed workers, thus enabling them to find new jobs. The complex has 24 greenhouses, each in the shape of a dome made up of pentagonal and hexagonal glass panels. During my visit, there were still tables and shelves on which the flower pots were placed inside certain domes. I also discovered an automatic heating and humidification system to create and maintain ideal conditions for plants throughout the year, especially during the winter months. The site was abandoned in 2005 for some reason. In 2010, the land was sold to the city and we could then hope for a better future for these incredible greenhouses. Unfortunately, in 2019 they suffered a partial demolition and today only five remain.

I made a first visit to this sanatorium in September 2021. I found two things that I really liked: a beautiful stairwell with beautiful blue glass tiles and this small room. I do not know what its function was. This building on the mountainside overlooked one of the beautiful lakes of the North of the country but this kind of loggia, yet very beautiful, overlooked the back. Anyway, it seems that his last function was to store chairs! During this first visit, there were twice as many, along the entire length of the room. Unfortunately, as with all the last places visited during this trip, a material damage prevented me from taking a good wide-angle photo. The wide angle was here a sine qua non condition to capture the essence of the room. Indeed, to be able to show this framing, I had to position myself in the door frame, with the tripod in the back room. I went back in November 2022. I was very apprehensive about this visit because I know that these places have their own lives. They can be barricaded, demolished, monitored overnight. So from one year to the next... I really wanted to redo this photo, so I hoped that it would always be perfectly abandoned. If you see this picture, it is because this second visit was a success! So there were half as many chairs... Go find out why! I told you that these places had their own lives... This sight amputated of a few chairs initially disappointed me, but in the end, I prefer it. It removes a symmetry that I did not necessarily like and lightens the photo.
