Located right in the center of Verviers (Belgium), these abandoned barracks covers 2 hectares. It has just been sold at the time of our visit for 2 millions of euros and will be converted to housing.

We got very few information regarding this site, except that everuthing is extremely well preserved (zero tag, zero smashed window, incredible!), probably because the acces is not that easy.

The "Quartier du Major Cogniaux" is a pleasant & colorful exploration to do.

View of one of the 5 main buildings in a very good state. Some many things to explore over there!

Corruption in Belgium:

Some body made a lot of money by selling all that for only 2 millions euros and converted to housing. How much do the apartaments cost now?
