This place was called "The Station" by the group of explorer "shills". The rails are still under water to some completely flooded. It takes a boat to access this part of the underground quarry.

The catacombs of Paris are actually municipal ossuaries. In fact, in the late 18th century, Parisian cemeteries were saturated. They moved the dead from mass graves in former quarries under Paris. Thus were born the catacombs of Paris.

The beams are used to ensure that adjacent buildings do not collapse under their own weight.

During the demolition of the island, there were huge piles of debris everywhere. They are in fact the walls of the partitions that were between some pillars to demarcate areas.

A small ossuary under the cemetery of Kremlin Bicetre. The bones are piled into a former quarry. They are not numerous, suggesting that they come from concessions not renewed. It remains a part of the quarry particularly pretty, with
beautiful arm pillars.

This corridor is almost completely around one of the last level gave me the solution to the legend that surrounds the courthouse in Brussels. Indeed, the legend says there are so many rooms that nobody really knows the number. It would suffice to count them you say? Certainly, but the legend also says that some rooms are hidden! And it's true! This corridor will lead to narrowing to a dead end. But shortly before, once a straight line (since it is the turn of the last square base, so that makes 4 times) there is a steep staircase, added a bit anyway, which is sometimes blocked the passage a pipeline. This staircase leads into empty rooms mysteriously seem to have been recently refurbished (light, electrical outlets). Impossible to know what they were good or what they will be used, it is already difficult to access with empty hands, imagine the trouble we have to make a table! No other access to these rooms, no windows.

Molitor the pool is a great pool complex abandoned. Designed by architect Lucien Pollet, the pool is famous for its art deco decor (stained glass, glass, balconies). In winter, the outdoor pool becomes the largest skating rink in Paris. Attributed to the pool Molitor paternity bikini, shortly after fashion shows in the pool enclosure.
The pool is a landmark of Paris. However, it closes August 31, 1989. It is listed in the inventory of historical monuments March 27, 1990. That's when the damage begins (tags, rave, pillage).
After 20 years of abandonment, the pool should reopen in 2012 after renovations.
