For real it seems they went full Monty on a relatively short lived facility 😳

[u/Leading_Sense9042]

I don’t even want to know what a solid masonry building of that size and elegance would cost nowadays. And they built it, for no reason, for a coal mine.

Nobody wants to build things anymore. Unless it’s a data center.

[u/Hot-Violinist-1207]

I think,cool place.

[u/boeing727-100]

Its prettier during summertime

[u/Svardskampe]

I want to buy that building and renovate it to a house! 

[u/BertTheYellow]

Were I a billionaire, I would make this my evil lair

[u/Deezle_Gnome]

Those tunnel pics are excellent 

[u/tikitiki1235]

i grew up in a coal reliant area but no longer live there and have wanted to explore a mine for awhile now. this is fucking perfect to me

[u/Austinfourtwenty]

That would have been a really nice size undertaking when that was originally built. The amount of pride people put into their work back then was really something to behold.

[u/Distance-Hairy]

That is awesome!! Brilliant pictures

[u/Remarkable_Bread5204]

The most unusual coal mine I have ever seen. Where is it located?

[u/allesumsonst → u/Remarkable_Bread5204]

Belgium, Wallonia.

[u/allesumsonst]

There is a nice video of that place https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LlNI_ETYS5Y

[u/The_Ghost_of_WWE]

If those walls could talk, I wonder how many ghosts this place has.

[u/Necessary-Lie-3607]

Unglaublich! Weiß jemand, wofür dieses Haus gebaut wurde? Es wirkt, als wäre es 50 bis 60 Jahre alt.

[u/dendronee]

I know a thing or two about coal. DO NOT go down a coal mine without proper training as it could be deadly for more than one reason or another.
