      actually, a lot of patients might find that helpful for their mental peace when they recover a bit. but yes, it's a bit too bright. not that it's a big deal, you can always use heavy curtains to block all lights from outside.

    As an East German native I can say: VEB is Volkseigener Betrieb which is 'Company owned by the people' and was a legal structure often times housed by a Kombinat. Capitalist equivalent: VEB amounts to Limited company maybe and Kombinat to cooperation.

    As a hospital engineer I only see hard ceilings, no interstitial spaces for engineering. No drop ceilings concealing heating and air conditioning, electrical and communication systems. I also see the structure is steam heated. It also has led exam lights, and surgical lights. This structure has been well preserved and shows the lack of graffiti and damage. I am currently in process of closing and decommissioning of a hospital right now, and I am the one that shutting down all the infrastructure. I’m at the beginning of what you are seeing now.

    12:45 PSA, if you run across disused medical imaging equipment, particularly older equipment, please report it to local nuclear regulatory authorities. They ususally have tip lines specifically for this. Medical imaging equipment (among other medical devices) often contain pieces of radioactive material for various reasons, and if these devices are improperly disposed of, that nuclear material becomes an orphan source; a source of potentially dangerous amounts of ionizing radiation that us unaccounted for. People have died from this. Stay safe out there

      In this particular case, I bet you money any radioactive isotopes have been removed - they take that sort of stuff very serious in Germany and generally in Western Europe. You will also not likely find patient data like we've seen in so many abandoned clinics and hospitals in the US because its a criminal offense to mishandle such data in most parts of Europe, especially in the EU where privacy laws are very strict.

      ​@@MegaPepsimaxThese organisations likely won't care and even if they do all they can consider it be is trespass. In most countries (I believe including Germany) trespass is only a criminal matter if you're asked to leave and refuse, they've already left without causing any damage so there really is no crime.

      While those things exist, CAT scan machines use röntgen tubes which are completely inert when turned off and not trivial to get going. MRI scanners use no radiation at all, just magnetic fields that are quite strong - and also gone once the helium is removed from the system and the mains is turned off.

    Very cool exploration! I find it crazy that mostly everything was removed from the building when it was abandoned in 2018 and yet they left behind a late-90s era MRI machine when the hospital ceased operations... guess it's obsolete and of no use? I was kind of disappointed about the lack of any Soviet feel to this hospital, it looked like when Germany unified, they did everything they could to erase all of it's previous history. But on the plus side, it is certainly one of the cleanest abandoned structures you guys have explored in quite a while, except for some paint chipping in certain areas and signs of a little water damage in the basement.

    It would be really cool if you guys would be able to explore the old Compaq headquarters in Houston the campus is mostly abandoned and was owned by HP until 2022 the center buildings were bought by a community college district in 2010 and were converted to a college campus. The rest of the surrounding Compaq campus is still abandoned with remnants of HP Enterprise moving out of one of the other office buildings on the site.

    If even abandoned hospitals in Germany are this clean, imagine what our active hospitals look like. 😄 Just kidding. But it is interesting how home-y this feels to me as an East German. Also my late father loved the "clean, neat clocks" you talked about. Glad you like them too.

    The floors of empty rooms seem perfect for temporary housing. Probably has good toilet and bath facilities already, just needs some furniture.

    11:36 i belive these type of doors are rather common around central europe. often saw them being used in offices, i suppose its to help keep conversation private or to insulate the sound from the hallways?

    15:58 GE 6600 series autoclave, circa 1997-98. Definitely part of a post soviet modernization of this place.

    It's so neat and clean. Not used to seeing abandoned places like this. Most have been trashed inside. The pool was probably used for physical therapy. Are the lights on, or is that natural sunlight? Everything looks so sterile and institutional.

    Before modern ISR/ISL ( In Situ Recovery/Leaching ) processes developed in my home state of Wyoming, Uranium mining could be very risky to the health of the miners, and thus the reason for the hospital in East Germany. There was probably a lot of pain and suffering in that hospital. I know of one old retired miner who suffered terribly before he died, enduring intestinal necrosis and a whole list of other related problems before he died. It may have had something to do with poor safety practices and the ingestion/aspiration of uranium dust and radon gas. Modern chemical recovery mining methods reduce the risks of exposure down to almost nothing, but Uranium is still mined the "old way" as well. I would not be a uranium miner.
