Abandoned Insane Asylum in Staunton, Virginia — Exploring the DeJarnette Sanitarium

Описание: ▽I caught a glimpse of this building through the trees and knew right away I'd found a gem. It was an institutional building with boarded-up windows and vines climbing up the sides. The style cried out "Insane Asylum". Turns out I was right: It was the DeJarnette Sanitarium, a eugenicist mental hospital from the 1930s. Here is my spontaneous exploration, lightly edited and uploaded immediately from the field.
