Sanatorio La Grola

About this location

Standing at the edge of the property, the two-story shell of Sanatorio La Grola is barely visible through the thick overgrowth that has reclaimed the grounds. The facade tells the story of decades of abandonment—peeling paint hangs in strips from the walls, and most of the windows have been shattered, leaving dark, gaping openings. Nature has moved in where the patients and staff left, with grass and trees rising unchecked right up against the building's base. It's a classic example of slow decay, a structure that's clearly been left to the elements for a long, long time.
