Dan Marbaix, a wedding photographer based out of London, used to have a mischievious little hobby. He liked to sneak into abandoned grounds — mental asylums, orphanages, power stations, and chemical plants — and snap pictures.
"If you tell me to go somewhere where I'm not allowed to go, that's exactly where I'm going to go," Marbaix tells Tech Insider.
Since becoming a dad, Marbaix hung up his urban explorer badge, but not before getting inside this haunting European prison. He shared some photos with TI, and you can check out more on his Flickr.
Dan Marbaix built a reputation for trespassing on abandoned properties for 15 years.
"Trespassing, not breaking in," he clarifies. "Climbing up through a second story window is not illegal." (We'll have to look into that ...)
Identifying a building's location is easier than you think. He credits Google Street View — "you can literally break into somewhere from the comfort of your own home."
