HARASTOLEN

Tuberculosis sanatorium. Mental hospital. Reception centre for asylum seekers. Decay.

The 100 ­years ­old walls of Harastolen have seen it all. Now they tell their stories.

At the far end of the largest fjord in Norway, high up in the mountainside, lies a lonely gigantic building. 16,000 square feet.

Apart from the size, the decay is what hits you when you see it. Once it was a modern hospital and a seperate functional society.

Today, the only thing left is decaying walls and the stories of what they have seen.
