Prefabet was one of the greatest abanoned industrial places in Kraków (Poland), full of huge halls and graffitis which just perfectly suited this place. The site already doesn’t exist, the photos below were taken when it was counting its last days.

The Zakrzówek Lake [Kraków, Poland]
It doesn’t happen too often to find some stunning nature corner just a few steps from the city center, but it’s different in Kraków where you don’t need to go far to see really huge and beautiful lake.
The Liban Quarry [Kraków, Poland]
The Liban Quarry is often called one of the creepiest abandoned places in Kraków, and it really is so—it is located in a territory of the former Płaszów Concentration Camp which operated here during the World War II. In 1993 some scenes of ‘Schindler’s List’ movie were shot here and there are still some decorations left in this place surrounded by amazing limestone cliffs, ponds, forest and thick bushes. All these taken together make that territory be unique breathtaking site, which just perfectly joins the beauty of nature and horror of creepy abandoned buildings.
