Cooler

Cooler

The morgue cooler was surprisingly small - it is possible that there were more than one in earlier days.

Did you look behind the doors?
With the death rate from TB I would think they would need more coolers....
Which door do you want? Door #1.....Door #2.... or Door #3
ill take #2 lol
this plaes would make a great apartment complex.
I like the eye hole on the large door...seriously, what are ya watching through that? To see if something is moving? ;-)
that's so they can see OUT
Hahah-- Katy and eldokid-- I shouldn't have laughed. . . but I did! XD

Seriously, though, I should HOPE that they had more than one back in the day!
my ass hurts cuz i cant stand up from this chair ive been watching these pics for 2 hours now!
Hello, Mister Motts if I'm allowed to call you that! haha, I've been fallowing your albums for quite a while and they more then intrigue me, I enjoy so much seeing old buildings such as this, it has always facinated me I'm not sure why, asylums mostly, finding this site has really kept me busy and very entertained, I wanted to thank you for all of the great photogrophy and to say I am very jelous of you mister! I hope one day I can do what you do and travel to abandoned places, learn their history and get some great memories it seems you have fun! though it is quite creepy at the say time, don't you ever get scared?

These doors seem to get bigger one after the other from the left down to over, did you know the reason for that? It's interesting in design and I'm wondering if there was a function for it, or is it just for show.

Thanks again for all the great pics and keeping us entertained, can't wait to see more!

Thanks; I can't say for sure but I believe either one or both right-side doors were used to access the refrigeration machinery. If only one door was used for access, the other was most likely for storing tissue samples or body parts that needed to be refrigerated.
Esqueletos es lo que guardaban detras de las puertas seguramente no?
back in the day when TB was an epidemic they use too ( hate to say it) but pile bodies in small coolers like this one then dispose of them in groups. hence the reason for only 1 cooler
leichenhalle.. am i right?
Creeeeepy .. o_o
