Expedition

A few minutes before midnight, I walked up St. Gertrud's hill, through the park and onto the grounds of the local mental hospital. The property is publicly accessible, and I am not unfamiliar with it, since I sometimes take walks here, and also because I was on a guided tour here a while ago. Public access cannot be taken for granted: I was told that it was not until the 1970s that the walls separating the patients from the general public came down.

The buildings are quite nice, instead of a hospital complex the buildings look like manors. There are several clinics here, e.g. some that are specialized on addicts, or seniors. The coordinates are located north of a narrow building, perhaps just containing a hallway, with the center for art and culture on one end. The other end contains the forensic clinic, where patients who commited crimes are treated. Their outside area is fenced in.

At midnight, I located the coordinates on the outside of the building, already standing under it's roof. After recording proof, I walked back home without crossing my tracks.

In the evening, on the way back home from 2024-06-22 52 9, I walked from the station to the Geohash to get some better photos of the site by daylight. Afterwards, I walked back home.
