Exploring The Forgotten World

Abandoned Steel Factory With Three Control Rooms

This once part of Belgium’s immense steel industry, and this plant produced steel rollers and other components.

Relic Of The Steel Industry

The Belgium steel industry collapsed in the early 21st Century

CLOSURE

Eventually the plant closed, likely during the mid-2000s.

There are three control rooms.

This is the oldest. The cabin is long and narrow. A single bank of control panels stand under the window that overlooks the factory floor.

The walls are a mustard yellow colour, and a large skylight floods the room with natural light.

The control panels feature backlit buttons, in red, blue, yellow and green. There are also computers in this cabin, controlled with mouse and keyboard.
