<p>🍓Move over James & The Giant Peach, this is Janine & The Oversized Strawberry! </p><p>Languishing in a disused field in <a href="/tags/poland/" rel="tag">#Poland</a> this sun-faded behemoth fruit was once a kind of roadside attraction for a large strawberry farm.

<p>An abandoned former military base in East Germany</p><p>After 1945, Soviet forces converted the old German base into a closed military town. By the 1970s, around 75,000 soldiers and families lived here. It was abandoned in the mid-1990s.</p><p>Many relics of the Soviet occupation remain. A statue of Lenin stands near the entrance. There is also a large theatre, a decaying swimming pool and a ballroom. Murals decorate walls and corridors.</p><p><a href="/tags/germany/" rel="tag">#Germany</a> <a href="/tags/soviet/" rel="tag">#Soviet</a> <a href="/tags/photography/" rel="tag">#Photography</a> <a href="/tags/history/" rel="tag">#History</a> <a href="/tags/lostplace/" rel="tag">#LostPlace</a> <a href="/tags/abandoned/" rel="tag">#Abandoned</a> <a href="/tags/urbex/" rel="tag">#Urbex</a></p>

<p>A once-grand synagogue, converted into a swimming pool. Now abandoned and decaying.
