On a hill overlooking both the town of Abades and the Atlantic Ocean, is the unfinished skeleton of a vast medical complex which was meant to treat patients suffering from leprosy.
Work began on the Sanatorio de Abades in 1943, a time during which leprosy was running rampant on the Canary Islands. Medical innovation, however, outpaced the speed of construction, and the authorities soon realized that this massive and costly complex wouldn’t be necessary. So, they simply halted work and left it half-completed.
In the 1960s the military found a use for the former sanatorium as a training facility. The “Escuela de Magisterio” was in service until 2002, and was best-known within the ranks as a facility for target practice and urban warfare training.
Aside from the ominous militaristic entrance gates, the grounds today are what one would expect of abandoned Tenerife: More peaceful than spooky.
