Hey!

Long time no see (yet again too busy)

and now i present you a preview on a set of images, all shot in the castle of '' 't vurstjen'',
a castle with a history dating back until 1400 and left to rot in 1950,
last giving home to the school of seaman's children, a sort of private school.

a small intro in the castle's history:

Build in the 12th century, this castle had many occupants, at the end of the 14th century, it became property of the bishops of Ghent, during this period, it was a villa offering rest and luxurious comfort for the men of the church, during the many years it was often adapted, expanded and even rebuild (during the luther-period), after the French revolution it became private property, offering the same luxurious comfort to many royal and families of noble blood (baron August van Loo-Malfait ,de heer Leon francois Feyerrick de Kerckhove), and in 1948 it became property of the government  wich installed the 'House for Fisherman's Children' there, it remained there untill 1953 and was then abandoned.
   
the beauty of this place is that everything is still in place, going from beautiful fireplaces, to even the school benches and vacuum cleaners  you just step back into time and dust.

It seemed like 2 months since the last occupants left this site, it felt like i could bump into a kid or something any moment, even the frying pans still stood on the stove for 50+ years, covered in 2 inches of dust...

This site was amazing to do some urban exploring on, i felt privileged to see it's majestic beauty...

I want my friends to think I'm awesome. I want this world to think I care. I don't care at all. For you I wear this mask, at home I tear it off. 'Cause I don't need it. No, I don't need it at all. I'm a wanna-be, I'm a wanna-be angel.
