ABANDONED GHOST TOWN OF DOEL

Come and explore the abandoned ghost town of Doel with us! It once counted over a thousand inhabitants, but now a mere twenty inhabit the ghost town. The fate of the village has been in limbo for decades, threatened with demolition due to the expansion of Antwerp’s port. While surrounding towns were quickly swallowed by the port of Antwerp, Doel managed to survive. Over the years, plans changed, inhabitants put up an admirable fight, and the government was never able to execute any of the plans drafted up for the seemingly doomed town. The residents have a glimmer of hope for the town to bounce back. If it does, it would be a remarkable change of fortune for a place that has been steadily emptying out since the late 1970s when its population was 60 times bigger, leaving behind silent streets of crumbling, sealed-up homes covered in graffiti. Squeezed between Antwerp's ever-expanding port, the second-biggest in Europe and a nuclear power plant, Doel has become a morbid attraction for curious tourists and "urban explorers" who film themselves daringly traipsing around inside ruined buildings. #ghosttown #abandoned #abandonedplaces #abandonedbuilding #abandonedbeauty #derelictplaces #derelict #decaying #explore #urbex #urbanexploration #exploringtheunknown #urbanexplorer #belgium #abandonedtown
