I'm a French artist, and my name is Dimitri "Jahz Design." I graduated as a graphic designer. I have always been interested in history and architectural remains. It was in 2013 when I developed my interest in the photography of heritage in disuse. My first exploration was an ancient cemetery of military ships.
I travel the globe looking for places in decline. Today, I want to share with you the most beautiful abandoned places around the world.
Also, check out my posts about the most beautiful abandoned castles, Georgian Soviet-era spas, European abandoned theaters, and lastly my most beautiful abandoned places around the world.

Amazing photos and places. Thank you for sharing
These are hauntingly beautiful, I love how you can almost feel the laughter, cries, screams, and stories told within these buildings. The mysteries hidden, if only we could reach into history and grab the tales these buildings have to tell us! The many questions whispered in the walls, why were they abandoned? Did the family who used to own it loose everything suddenly? Had they all died, of war or disease? The chipped paint, growing mold, and intricate furniture that's left to gain dust only adds to the frightening beauty. My mystery-filled soul loves this. :) I do hope they get renovated and restored to their former glory however, there really is no use for keeping such grand buildings empty. Thank you for taking such beautiful pictures!
This was brilliant! All the activities in these buildings no longer exist. It makes me wonder why they are abandoned. Its a shame to see them rotting away to dust when there are people out there on the streets..... that would appreciate something like these. I hope they eventually get renovated and put to good use.
Modern humans have been around for 50,000 years. We’ve lost the vast majority of the structures we’ve built. We couldn’t possibly preserve or reuse every place we’ve ever built. Not even the pyramids are permanent. I agree that there’s no reason anybody should be living on the streets, though.
You can buy a castle in France for less than 100000 euros (like the one on the link build in the 15th century), the issue is not the price of the building, but the cost of the work that these buildings needs. Structural issues, lead pipes, rotten wooden floors, rotten walls, rotten wooden frame, rotten external joinery... These buildings needs total structural renovation that cost millions. https://www.chateauxpourtous.fr/p-11-acheter-achat-vente-chateau-medieval-en-ruine-a-vendre-poitou-charente-acheter-achat-vente-chateau-pas-cher-a-vendre-deux-sevres-argenton-les-vallees-79300.php
That actually happened. Look up the FL Wonder House. Interesting story. It was abandoned for over 60 years, and then some people bought it, renovated it, and live in it. Heres the link: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wonderhouse
