Information

Criminal offenses also apply to "lost places" visitors! The former Kent School in Schwalmtal-Hehler has long been considered a so-called "Lost place" for scene-savvy and self-proclaimed adventurers. That such buildings or terrain possess a magical attraction, is also clear to us. Nevertheless, the thirst for adventure is also opposed to private interest. For the grounds of the Kent School, which is privately owned, the following also applies - as for any other fenced-in private property - but trespassing is prohibited! In 2021, a large number of national "event tourists" were drawn to Schwalmtal again. The local security company reported a total of 61 trespasses to the police. These will be followed up by us. In concrete terms, this means that investigations will be initiated against these people. In many cases, in addition to unauthorized access, there is also property damage, which ultimately no longer has any relation to pure curiosity. It is understandable that the owners do not approve of this. That is why we expressly mention again that access to the grounds of the former Kent School is prohibited. In the case of the Kent School in particular, the place is not so "lost" at all, but is constantly guarded by employees of the security company.
