Most of the old medical equipment at Lier sykehuset has been removed, but Alice and I did find a few things which were still there. There were a few devices which seem to have been medical waste disposal units, but the purpose of other things were less obvious. If you know what they’re for, please let me know in the comments 🙂

This strange stretcher like thing was bolted to the wall. My best theory, is that it was used to strap patients to the wall when they didn’t want to leave them sitting down. Clearly others were wondering what it was for too as the text beside it says “Hva er dette?”, “Pliss svar!” and “Godt spørsmål”, which means “What is that?”, “Please answer!” and “Good question” in ENglish.

We found quite a bit of graffiti on the walls at
Lier sykehuset, but I was actually surprised how little there was. Considering that the buildings have been abandoned since 1985 and are just sitting there with no lock or secure fence around them, I assumed they would be filled with abusive graffiti and general idiocy.

There were a lot of pentacles painted on the wall

During our visit to Lier sykehuset, Alice and I checked out building A, which was unfortunately being destroyed. There was a small warning sign in front of the building, but it was rather obvious that entering was horridly bad idea, since half of it had been pulled down already :/

View from the front of block B at Lier sykehuset. It looked fine from this side, but a quick look around the other side of the building revealed a different story.

This building was clearly marked as being dangerous.

They weren’t pulling anything down when were there as it was the weekend.

Lots and lots of bricks!
