An abandoned peat factory and a dangerous Soviet legacy
Hello everybody! Architectural buildings can be useful, but if abandoned buildings are dangerous. I visited the country building of the Soviet peat factory. This is a massive 19th century building that looks like a delightful architectural shame.


![photo5230957166947579571.jpg](https://images.hive.blog/DQmPfBc44r9qSY51Ck8nMPswDzbTrBWbDVdDodibCf9JeJF/photo5230957166947579571.jpg)

Today it is autumn weather, which means that nature is painted in gray tones. The weather was cloudy. The sun did not interfere with taking photographs, and a weekday made the abandoned building of the peat factory completely deserted.

In this post, I decided to draw attention to a separate structural element of the peat plant. It's a dangerous place, but spectacular.

The roofs of the building are overgrown with trees and moss. Nature reigns around. It took me a lot of time and caution to walk the dangerous path. Before entering the road up, a path downward lay in wait for us. Like a deep road to hell.


![photo5230957166947579573.jpg](https://images.hive.blog/DQmV49aDptRZ7KtaXRCpkWYL3dqHdvAkbkVKzovmmDmtRQb/photo5230957166947579573.jpg)

The building was destroyed as much as possible, but a couple of decades ago the peat plant brought great profits to the region. However, at the moment it is a symbol of the former greatness of the Soviet Union.

The road up was full of dangers. The long hallway was rickety and the floor was not hard. There were many holes in the hallway ...


![photo5230957166947579572.jpg](https://images.hive.blog/DQmcwqy2xrAtor9o7uqzJKzqcd5NSqgpww4ivTZHFKo8iFh/photo5230957166947579572.jpg)

Walking along the corridor, I felt the shakiness of the structure. The building has not been used for a long time and has fallen into disrepair. It is dangerous to people. In addition, the building poses a hazard to wobbly nerves and eyes. I mean, the old peat factory is both aesthetically beautiful and ugly. The huge scale of the enterprise and its decline is depressing.


![photo5230957166947579562.jpg](https://images.hive.blog/DQmS3yKc7wnALMKP3rYUhiUJgw6Hy5RFLYwVAhuBXefDPMi/photo5230957166947579562.jpg)

The road up was full of dangers of falling down. The floor was falling down. There were many hidden holes in the floor.


![photo5230957166947579569.jpg](https://images.hive.blog/DQmQYvjR38vYYy49Jtyp9KePbiSMU2mFYfksS4WXzDEj8iQ/photo5230957166947579569.jpg)

Part of the holes were technical, but most of the holes were created by time and human influence. The design features allowed the torv factory to be operated for a long time, but the lack of maintenance made the complex of buildings unusable.


![photo5230957166947579568.jpg](https://images.hive.blog/DQmTF2xCJJDZBfK7Nb48PczdYZfet7npzZTu5MpW5GaAC2m/photo5230957166947579568.jpg)

However, this building or complex of buildings can be used for filming a slasher or horror movie. At night this place will acquire an extraordinary flavor. I would not risk walking around here at night. The probably abandoned peat factory is home to homeless people.


![photo5230957166947579563.jpg](https://images.hive.blog/DQmVRMhgeqy2AGUjLzhL9sxxUQmRxtzSyk4s53kUv49ASHG/photo5230957166947579563.jpg)

It is difficult to imagine how much money was invested in the construction of this building. The scale is surprising. To quit such production is to take many people out of work and lose huge profits. But peat is no longer a profitable element.


![photo5230957166947579561.jpg](https://images.hive.blog/DQmVF3Uj8JhhPnFx62uVbcpLUjDHJbWSCgMw8MhpLwey2zt/photo5230957166947579561.jpg)

Such places attract attention, but at the same time are a shame for the area. The territory of abandoned buildings may not be disgraceful, but they are magnets for teens and marginalized people. Chernobyl!

![photo5230957166947579562.jpg](https://images.hive.blog/DQmS3yKc7wnALMKP3rYUhiUJgw6Hy5RFLYwVAhuBXefDPMi/photo5230957166947579562.jpg)

Nature and time take territory from abandoned architecture. Although this is an interesting symbiosis of nature and human structures. Whatever it was, but it is interesting to watch how the legacy of the Soviet Union is slowly being destroyed. Therefore, I use the term Chernobyl, as the building resembles Chernobyl.


![photo5230957166947579564.jpg](https://images.hive.blog/DQmeBBbV9FfSMijXKENmAyjBUVAtUcoyC3Yr345j1pNtwWa/photo5230957166947579564.jpg)

The Soviet legacy has left its mark on the entire territory of the CIS. However, in most cases, the buildings of great industries look depressing. Many productions have lost their former greatness, while others are simply empty. The peat factory in the village of Luki has long been forgotten. It is an architectural appendage of advice. Previously, the production was the standard and pride of the region, but now it is a dangerous building.


![photo5231181355650497190.jpg](https://images.hive.blog/DQmYeahVrDfEzUH5Pu7NYsKPdU88icMHYmUjZBBt22A4zES/photo5231181355650497190.jpg)

Excitingly and extremely, you can spend your time exploring an abandoned peat factory. You can see how time shines and how it can mercilessly destroy any human structure. Walking in this place for me is like getting into a time capsule and plunge into the old days ...
