Abandoned Engineering - Season 11
Season 11
This documentary series takes a closer look at dilapidated and abandoned exploring structures around the world - forgotten fragments of incredible engineering feats, sprawling ghost towns, puzzling industrial complexes, and sinister remains from bloody conflicts.
Each haunted shell tells its own unique story as to how and why it was built and what factors then came in to play that saw it neglected.
