Towns bombed during the Spanish Civil War that were never rebuilt;
an international railway station once teeming with Nazi and Allied
double agents, now concealing a state-of-the-art dark matter
research laboratory; a former munitions dump hewn out of the
mountainside; a winery whose vast tanks form a unique architectural
site; and various laboratories that have closed down, their
experiments frozen in time ... Although the remains of the old town
of Belchite and Canfranc railway station are popular with urban
explorers in Spain, many other historic sites - overlooked even by
local people - are on the brink of vanishing into oblivion. For the
last ten years, the cameras of Fran Lens, Paco Quiles and Carlos
Sanmillan have crisscrossed the country to record these abandoned
locations for posterity. Their work is featured in this photo
report infused with history and adrenaline.
