The Linear Concrete Pavilions of Dreux
Abandoned place – Dreux, France
Hidden deep within the dense canopy of Dreux, Frankreich, the sprawling modernist concrete pavilions of this former sanatorium lie swallowed by nature. Once a state-of-the-art facility designed to combat tuberculosis with fresh air and sunlight, its long, linear terraces now serve as a silent monument to mid-century medical architecture slowly being reclaimed by the forest.
