Fascinating abandoned ghost towns around the world

10/12/2020



Slide 1 of 68: A deserted Gold Rush town, a haunted pearl fishing village and an eerie abandoned island – these ghost towns all lie frozen in time. Read on for a moving, intriguing and at times spooky snapshot of life as it once was.
Slide 2 of 68: Travel around 30 minutes southeast of Drumheller – itself known as the world’s dinosaur capital – and you’ll come to the hamlet of Dorothy. Located in Alberta’s Badlands, the town still has a few steadfast local residents – but you’ll find abandoned relics from the early 20th century lying untouched and boarded up. Dorothy was once a go-getting pioneer town, growing to around 100 residents at its peak during the 1920s. However, the prosperity brought by the nearby railway line didn’t last.
Slide 3 of 68: Dorothy’s school shuttered in 1960 and both of the hamlet’s churches closed their doors to worshipers in the 1960s too. Like many rural spots in southern Alberta, farming was a key industry and Dorothy once boasted three grain elevators. Now only one remains. Look closely and you can still see the lettering of the Alberta Pacific Grain Company, a firm long-since taken over. You can also see the remains of the general store too.
Slide 4 of 68: During the heyday of coal mining in the early 20th century, Thurmond was a prosperous town with business and facilities for the Chesapeake and Ohio Railway. A 100-room hotel in the town, Dun Glen opened in 1901 and became a nationally-known resort. It burned down in 1930, marking the beginning of a decline that left Thurmond a ghost town by the 1950s.

Slide 5 of 68: Today it still possesses the characteristics of a 1920s Appalachian coal town and is usually a popular tourist destination, now under the remit of the National Park Service.
Slide 6 of 68: Now an open-air museum, Port Arthur used to be a small town and a convict settlement in Tasmania, Australia. From 1833 to 1853 it was the destination for secondary British offenders, convicted of the most notorious crimes after their arrival in Australia.
Slide 7 of 68: It’s notable for being one of the first prisons that used psychological punishment instead of physical – food was used as a reward, a 'silent system' was implemented that forbade inmates from speaking and a 'separate prison system' (similar to modern-day solitary confinement), that subjected convicts to the lack of light and sound, was trialed.
Slide 8 of 68: Just over an hour’s drive southwest from Saskatoon lies the tiny town of Bents. Its heyday came in the 1930s when one of the last stretches of railway was built into the Canadian Prairies. The trains were halted in the 1970s, when the running of them became financially difficult and the population of Bents gradually fell away.
Slide 9 of 68: The buildings that remain include one of the two huge grain stores from the 1920s, with an abandoned tractor discarded at the front. Inside the general store you’ll also find a pair of ice skates hanging on the wall and row after row of empty shelving. Discover Canada's most adorable towns.

Slide 10 of 68: This district in the Brazilian city Aveiro was established in 1928 by Henry Ford and the Ford Motor Company. Its primary purpose was to produce rubber from trees in the Amazon rainforest. However, Ford’s project failed and it was abandoned in 1934.
Slide 11 of 68: Today, a small part of the district is inhabited by around 2,000 people and most of the original buildings stand as they were back in the 1930s. Although all the buildings, including the six houses in the 'American Village', were left behind with the original furnishings, equipment and even clothing, most of it has been taken by looters.
Slide 12 of 68: Founded as a coal-mining community by Russian settlers in 1910, the remote town on the archipelago of Svalbard had a population of over 1,000 people. In 1927 it was sold by private Russian owners to the Soviet Union, who successfully continued mining until 1998, when the last resources were extracted.
Slide 13 of 68: The settlement was abandoned in a hurry, so things remain largely as they were. Pyramiden is home to the world’s northernmost grand piano, the northernmost swimming pool and the northernmost monument to the Soviet leader Vladimir Lenin. Take a look at these striking communist remains around the world.
Slide 14 of 68: In the 1920s, around 500 people lived in this village in Alberta. Today the count is just eight – and after the final train rolled through in 1999, it seemed any hope of prosperity was lost forever. But these days, things are looking up for the town as it has become a well-loved stop on the ghost-town trail. While some buildings have been done up by the remaining locals, there are many that still lie in a derelict state.

Slide 15 of 68: During summer you can usually join free guided tours to see the abandoned houses, stores and the stunning grain elevators. In town on the last Saturday of the month? Typically, there's a pizza night with live music. It's the best way to meet residents and uncover the best stories and local legends.
Slide 16 of 68: Located in northeastern Crete, Spinalonga wasn’t always an island – during Venetian occupation the coast was carved out for defensive purposes and a fort was built. In 1715, the Ottoman Turks took over the Venetian rule until the Cretan revolt at the end of the 19th century.
Slide 17 of 68: From 1903 to 1957 Spinalonga was used as a leper colony – it was one of the last active leper colonies in Europe. Its last resident, a priest, left the island in 1962 and today the abandoned fortress is usually popular with tourists. Take a look at incredible photos of abandoned islands the world forgot.
Slide 18 of 68: Founded in 1880, St. Elmo was home to almost 2,000 people, who worked in the gold and silver mining industry. As it slowly declined in the early 1920s, the railway service was discontinued in 1922 and residents left town. It is one of Colorado’s best-preserved ghost towns.
Slide 19 of 68: It's currently a sought-after destination for many fishing enthusiasts, thanks to the many excellent spots along Chalk Creek that runs through the town. Although many of the buildings are still intact, the town hall and a few others burned down in a fire in 2002. Buena Vista Heritage is currently working on restoring the buildings to their original state.
Slide 20 of 68: Located near Zaragoza in the northeast of Spain, Belchite was almost completely destroyed 80 years ago during one of the bloodiest battles of the Spanish Civil War. After the war, it was decided the town should be left untouched and abandoned as a memorial to the 3,000 people who were killed there.
Slide 21 of 68: Belchite is thought to be one the most haunted towns in the world and, according to local farmers, the cries of a desperate boy looking for his mother can be heard at dusk. It was used as a filming location for Guillermo Del Torro’s 2006 Academy Award-winning Pan’s Labyrinth.
Slide 22 of 68: Founded in 1862 and named after a local indigenous community, Bannack was the site of a major gold deposit discovery. At its peak, the town had a population of around 10,000 and briefly served as the capital of Montana Territory in 1864. As the gold ran out in the mines, the town was slowly abandoned, with the last residents leaving in the 1970s.
Slide 23 of 68: A historical re-enactment known as Bannack Days usually takes place every year during the third weekend of July. For two days a year, visitors of Bannack are taken back in time to when it was a booming mining town during the Gold Rush. Part of the event is an old-timey breakfast served in the Hotel Meade – a well-preserved brick building from the late 1860s.
Slide 24 of 68: Located in the north of Austria, near the border with Czech Republic, the first mentions of Döllersheim date as far back as the 12th century. In 1938, when Nazi Germany annexed Austria, Hitler ordered the evacuation of the town.
Slide 25 of 68: A large Nazi military training area was established in Döllersheim and all the houses were bombed in 1941 as a part of a training exercise. After Nazi Germany lost the war, the training ground was seized by the Soviet Army and has remained a military exclusion zone, now under the rule of Austrian Armed Forces. Visitors are permitted to visit the main square, as well as the ruins of some of the churches and surrounding graveyards.
Slide 26 of 68: Built to resemble the French capital, Tianducheng in the Zhejiang Province in eastern China has its own 354-foot-tall (108m) replica of the Eiffel Tower and covers an area of around 12 square miles (31sqkm). Built in 2007, it can accommodate more than 10,000 inhabitants but is pretty much abandoned, save for the 2,000 people who work in the nearby French-themed amusement park.
Slide 27 of 68: The housing estate features Parisian architecture, grand fountains, public parks and has wide boulevards and avenues. Today, it’s usually a popular destination for tourists. Spot the difference with more copycat attractions around the world.
Slide 28 of 68: Located in Russia’s Far East, Kadykchan was built by prisoners during the Second World War as an accommodation for the coal miners. Over time it grew to house workers from a few local coal mines that supplied Arkagalinskaya electric power station.
Slide 29 of 68: After the collapse of the Soviet Union, coal mining became unprofitable and the regions in the Russian Far East were neglected due to political uncertainty. After an explosion in 1996 killed six people, the mines were shut, and the government paid for the residents to move elsewhere. Now there are several organized tours taking visitors to what was once a thriving community in one of the most remote locations in Russia.
Slide 30 of 68: Around 10,000 Orthodox Greeks lived in Kayaköy until 1923, when they were exiled to Crete in the aftermath of the brutal Greco-Turkish war. In 1957, a huge earthquake wreaked destruction on the town, but around 350 derelict homes still remain today.
Slide 31 of 68: Through the rugged streets, at the top of the town, there's a viewpoint from where the vibrant blue waters of Ölüdeniz can be seen sparkling far below.
Slide 32 of 68: In Lower Church – one of the two remaining religious buildings – are faded murals and arched ceilings. Eerily, there are ancient human bones inside.
Slide 33 of 68: Al Jazirat Al Hamra, in Ras Al Khaimah, was once a vibrant pearling village. It's uncertain whether the 2,400 inhabitants left their homes because of tribal disputes, or because they were tempted by the promise of wealth in gold-rich Abu Dhabi. But by 1968 the town was abandoned.
Slide 34 of 68: Now the coral stone buildings lie empty, coated in grains of rusty red desert sand. Some doors are locked, but visitors can peer into the belly of the buildings to see abandoned classrooms and bedrooms. The mosque still stands too. Take a look at more secret wonders hidden in the world's largest deserts.
Slide 35 of 68: Known locally as the Ghost Town, Al Jazirat Al Hamra has a reputation for being haunted by evil spirits. While it may be empty, it hasn’t been forgotten by its former inhabitants. They reunite here once a year for a party, to celebrate their heritage.
Slide 36 of 68: This tiny island, commonly called Gunkanjima, just off the coast of Nagasaki, was once the site of an undersea coal mine. So rich were the coal resources that by the 1950s some 6,000 miners were squeezed ashore, housed in 10-story high rises. It’s also known as Battleship Island because of its shape.
Slide 37 of 68: By the 1970s the coal supply had run dry, and in 1974 Gunkanjima was eventually closed. But in 2009 it was reopened, and was famously used in 2012 James Bond film Skyfall as the location where Bond confronts his nemesis, Raoul Silva, in his creepy HQ.
Slide 38 of 68: Today, the decaying buildings are being reclaimed by vegetation, and the frequent typhoons have made them unsafe to enter. Tourists can usually visit the island by organized boat tour, which will give you access to a fenced walkway. These amazing ruins have also been taken over by Mother Nature.
Slide 39 of 68: In its heyday, this California gold mining town had 10,000 inhabitants and 65 saloons, gambling halls, opium dens and brothels. The frequent outbreaks of violence and murders earned Bodie the dubious reputation as 'the most lawless' mining camp in the Wild West.
Slide 40 of 68: Over time, the mines became too expensive to run and in 1932 a huge fire razed 90% of the town to the ground. The 200 buildings that remain are now preserved as ruins – tables are still laid with crockery and, in the school, books lie scattered on desks.
Slide 41 of 68: Visitors aren’t allowed inside the houses and the church, but there are usually daily tours of the old stamp mill. It's an eerie yet surprisingly photogenic place. Marvel at America's most stunning natural wonders.
Slide 42 of 68: Abkhazia was once a vacation destination for wealthy Russians, but in 1992 it entered a devastating 13-month civil war with Georgia. It broke away in 1999, declaring an independence which is only recognized by a handful of countries, including Russia.
Slide 43 of 68: Many of Abkhazia’s towns, like Akarmara, were abandoned during the fighting and remain more or less deserted. Today, around 38 people are thought to still live here. Apartment blocks are now sadly buried under foliage, bridges are covered in moss and car wrecks and baths lie rusting in the street alongside other debris.
Slide 44 of 68: The village of Oradour-sur-Glane, in France, is a gut-wrenching reminder of the atrocities of the Second World War. On 10 June 1944, 642 inhabitants were shot or burned alive by the German forces.
Slide 45 of 68: Today, Oradour-sur-Glane is a memorial to those who perished. Rusted cars, including the Peugeot 202 the mayor drove before his brutal death, still sit on the roads, while sewing machines, pitchers and pans still lie scattered where they were on that fateful day.
Slide 46 of 68: The nearby museum is well worth a visit to give you an understanding of the history, then you can work your way through the town in respectful silence. In the church, a pushchair lies by the altar, untouched since the massacre. It’s a heartbreaking reminder of the darker side of humanity.
Slide 47 of 68: If you haven’t been to Rodalquilar in Spain, chances are you’ve seen it on Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade. From 1864 to 1990 this was a bustling village with 1,400 people and one of the biggest gold mines in western Europe. 
Slide 48 of 68: In the 1990s, the mine eventually ground to a halt for good. Travelers today can usually visit the derelict homes and see the old mining tunnels, plus there’s a museum that explains the process of extracting gold.
Slide 49 of 68: As the Second World War raged on in 1943, the Ministry of Defence decided to evacuate Imber on Salisbury Plain and use it as a training ground for the US army. The devastated village residents were given just 47 days to pack up and find new homes and it’s said the local blacksmith died from a broken heart.
Slide 50 of 68: Today, Imber is still used to train soldiers in urban warfare, but the MOD usually opens it to the public on select dates, which are dictated by military training schedules.
Slide 51 of 68: Many of Imber’s displaced residents have since been returned to the 13th-century St Giles church for burial. Even on the MOD open days, access to what remains of the village is very limited because of the danger of unexploded bombs, but you can catch a disconcerting glimpse of The Bell pub, Imber Court manor house and other homes from the road. These are Britain's most historic towns and cities.
Slide 52 of 68: When a violent earthquake rocked Poggioreale in Sicily in January 1968, the devastated town was abruptly abandoned. The survivors rebuilt their community across the valley.
Slide 53 of 68: There’s no ticket office or museum here so visitors can freely explore the hauntingly deserted streets, overgrown with weeds. While the yellow-stone houses may not be safe to enter, you can catch glimpses of life before the tragedy struck through the doorways, with 1960s-era magazines and bottles lying on surfaces.
Slide 54 of 68: The town’s crumbling theater, cathedral, bell tower and post office are still visible – in the post office, you can see a painting of telegraph wires on the wall. Take a look at these incredible places destroyed by the weather.
Slide 55 of 68: Perhaps the most famous ghost town in the world, Pripyat was once a bustling town of 50,000 people. Today, it stands empty and access has been restricted after it fell victim to the nearby Chernobyl reactor failure in 1986.
Slide 56 of 68: Entire schools, hotels, apartment buildings and hospitals were left to ruin after that fateful explosion at the nuclear power plant as all of Pripyat's residents were evacuated. Today, visitors can usually explore the abandoned area on organized tours, with no risk of being affected by radiation. Discover these no-go zones where people fear to tread.
Slide 57 of 68: In the early 1900s, over 300 German and 800 native miners settled at Kolmanskop in the Namib desert. They were lured here by the promise of diamonds, which had been discovered beneath the orange sands.
Slide 58 of 68: The proliferation of gems (at one point 11% of the world’s diamonds were produced here) meant there was plenty of cash, so the mine soon built a school, bakery, sports hall and even a hospital. Opera singers were flown in to perform at the spectacular ballroom and trains brought in enough fresh water for residents to keep vibrant gardens, incongruous in the dry desert.
Slide 59 of 68: Then in 1928, a far bigger diamond deposit was discovered south of Kolmanskop, and many of the inhabitants left in their search for treasure. By 1956, the town was completely abandoned and, today, the shifting red desert sands sweep into the decrepit houses.
Slide 60 of 68: To get access to Kolmanskop, you’ll need to buy a permit at the gate. There are usually daily guided tours, but you can explore the buildings on your own afterwards too.
Slide 61 of 68: Located on Lake Bennett, this town started life as a boat-building hub in 1897, growing to a proper town with 15,000 people who flowed in during the Klondike Gold Rush. The town was vitally important during the construction of the White Pass and Yukon railway. But the completion of the line in 1900 saw an end to the town’s purpose and it fell into decline. All that remains is St Andrew’s Church and the ghostly reminders of its previous fortune, such as wharf pilings and scattered glass bottles.
Slide 62 of 68: Nearly 120 years on it’s usually possible to camp at Lake Bennett, which is now managed by Parks Canada and part of the Chilkoot Trail National Historic Site. Other things to see in the area include a stampeder cemetery, where some early Gold Rush-era pioneers are buried. It’s a remote place though, with no amenities, so it suits more experienced campers. Take a look at Canada's jaw-dropping natural wonders.
Slide 63 of 68: Described as a "living ghost town", Gwalia is one of Australia's fallen mining settlements. In a familiar tale, a community of miners mushroomed here in the late 1890s after gold was discovered in the area and the Sons of Gwalia mine was built. At its peak, the town of Gwalia had around 1,200 residents. But by the 1960s, the writing was on the wall. The mine, which had been in decline for decades, closed in 1963, and the 1,000-plus-strong population plummeted to around 40 people.
Slide 64 of 68: Today, visitors can usually wander between the deserted buildings and imagine what life would have been like when Gwalia was at its height. You'll see Australia's first government-owned hotel, a collection of 19th-century mining buildings and a huddle of timber, iron and hessian cottages. You can also pore over an impressive collection of relics from Gwalia's past, including photos, machinery and period furniture. These are Australia's most beautiful Outback towns.
Slide 65 of 68: Located about 6.5 miles (10km) east of the Kennicott Glacier, Kennecott was a mining camp, central to several copper mines. The town was built in 1911 and by 1916 the mines produced copper ore valued at $32.4 million. However, the high-grade ore started to run out in the late 1920s and the first mine closed in 1929 with the rest following the same fate. The last train departed from Kennecott on 10 November 1938, leaving it abandoned.
Slide 66 of 68: In 1955 a party of geologists was sent to the mines surrounding Kennecott to determine whether there were any resources left to mine and, after no new copper reserves were found, the town remained abandoned. Today, it's a national historic site run by the National Parks Service and is popular with travelers exploring Alaska.
Slide 67 of 68: With a history stretching as far back as BC 540, Craco sits atop a 1,300-foot-high (396m) cliff overlooking the Cavone River valley, at the instep of Italy’s boot. After the town was evacuated due to a landslide in 1963, many residents decided not to return. A flood in 1972 worsened the situation and after an earthquake in 1980, the ancient site was abandoned completely.
Slide 68 of 68: The town has been featured widely in popular culture, especially in films. Mel Gibson’s controversial film The Passion of Christ was partly shot in Craco and a few scenes for the 2008 James Bond film Quantum of Solace were also filmed in the ghost town. Now take a look at stunning images of the world's historic attractions.
