The vestiges of the past sometimes leave us with pleasant surprises. A Facebook account, called Abandoned Beauties, has fun bringing together the most beautiful photos of abandoned places taken by Internet users around the world. The least we can say is that the photos appeal to our imagination.

A place, a architecture and it’s a whole story that is being recreated before our eyes. It is sometimes useless to know what was once a building now abandoned to imagine what it might have looked like.
This is exactly the kind of feeling caused by the observation of these pictures listed on the Facebook account Abandoned Beauties (The abandoned beauties). An account that is aptly named as some abandoned places are still well preserved despite the obstacles of nature at their heart. It is even difficult to imagine that some of them have been abandoned for a long time: a library in Italy, a castle in Germany or a castle French which seems straight out of a gothic film à la Tim Burton.
