Serviceresidentie Ter Zee Wenduine

THE ABANDONED CARE HOME IN BELGIUM

‘Serviceresidentie Ter Zee Wenduine’ was a home for aged and needed people. It was demolished to make place for a new building, a service hotel.

The residence was abandoned in 2005 because of danger of collapse of the structure. Consequently, 50 residents had to look for a new home. Besides the four floors high building, there was also an abandoned chapel on the site. Like the home also the chapel was in a bad state. Eventually, both chapel and care home were demolished in 2006.

Eventually, a new care home was opened in 2015. The new residence houses 200 people and will has a big restaurant and modern parking cellar. The new building inherited the name of the old one. I took these photos of ‘Serviceresidentie Ter Zee Wenduine’ in 2006, several months before it was demolished. Follow this link for more abandoned care homes.
