In today's episode, I'm taking you inside to explore a historic mental hospital dating back over a century. The hospital, a major part of the town's history, was originally a tuberculosis treatment center from 1912 to 1960. In 1960, it transitioned into a mental facility for the mentally disabled but closed in 1995. In its nearly 90 years of operations, many people have died in the hospital, including several employees from natural casues or suicide. The hospital, now in ruins, is a testament to the past and has not been reopened.
The hospital was renowned for its innovative' Sun cure,' or 'heliotherapy,' a treatment method that harnessed the sun's rays to aid patients.
The site's future remains to be determined, with officials considering demolition or refurbishment. Only time will tell.

Maitence workers only .spelling oops.
That glass work is amazing. Zoom into the center of the sky dome, sacred geometrical pattern. Very cool!
Yessss J.N. Adams!!! This is about an hour drive from me. My grandpa actually stayed in here for a brief period of time when he was young. I've explored here a few times. It just has a really sad feel to it.
Beautiful architectural building. They just don’t make them like they used to. Be careful out there. Maybe take a buddy next time. Winter time is a good time to explore. Thank you for the video.
Thanks for sharing 👍🤓👍. Would love to see tha glass ceiling before it falls
One of a kind explore! Lots of buildings to explore.
I appreciate the beauty of natural decay.
We view many people showing abandoned place but our top two are broken window therapy and you sir. We love how you inform us on the history ! great job. ..... fantastic
Thank you Alex 😊
We have a historical hospital here too and all the buildings are rotting away. Its really sad because the buildings are gorgeous.
In *Laurelton Pennsylvania,* which is in *Western Pennsylvania,* I visited an asylum that's been abandoned sometime in the 90s called *Laurelton State village for feeble-minded women of childbearing age.* This place was run by all the people that were there, they literally grew their own food, there is a hospital there and a school there for the kids, cottages for them to live in, an auditorium. Behind the hospital, I believe when you look at an aerial view picture you can see that the trees grew in wrong and they are growing out to the side because that is where they used to bury everybody after they passed away. When you're on the ground you can see the lumps where the bodies are and then the trees trying to grow around it.
And I forgot to add that it was a very cool place to explore. It seems like these asylums that have been opened forever close in the 90s, every one of them seems like they closed in the 90s, which is my era.
The dome! How gorgeous!! And you’re right about the light fixtures. We had those when I was in grade school. They were great. Not like the awful fluorescent lights. What a cool explore. In the basement, the apparatus that had the foot pedal was a bedpan washer. Stainless steel bedpans were the standard and needed to be sanitized. So flush and wash.
I love your videos! I love the commentary, your knowledge of the location, the photos of its former life. You really do make us feel like we're a part of it. I'm old, fat & unhealthy, so I live vicariously through you! LOL
Hi Rick, I liked this place! Gosh the walls were falling down 😱 no don’t go down in that hole! Have a great day ❤
I ❤ the way you is so safe and you believe in SAFETY ✨️ 🙏 !!!
Yet another great explore! Thanks Rick!
Amazing 👏 👏 👏
They should have kept the building in better condition, as it could have been made into a nursing home, or low income housing. The area has beautiful scenery as well. Have a great day ❤️🙂⚘️.
This is made to last thru Generations.:)Just think this was planned in the 1800s to build in 1900s.I love old buildings with History the walls did talk and yes lives were lived easy and hard no wonder why there was deaths.Thanks Rick this is amazing to see inside . I love Tunnels back into the late 1600s to beyond.
Im curious also to where this place is! Looks colder than the midwest where I live .. Cheers having my my 4th beer 🍺 getting tired up turning my heat up and down lol
Thank you much for your time and having the motivation of exploring & sharing of strange abandoned building’s
Amazing explore!!
wowwww this was a great place to explore i think i remember seeing this on the proper peoples video was amazing at that time would be coool for a spoooky movie awesome video rick
I enjoyed this thankyou for sharing your travels with us ❤
That place is massive 😮!!!
The room where the dome roof is is definitely not in great shape 😮
Beautiful decay, imagine this joint @ night? Prolly very haunted, due to all the misery that occurred there!
One can only imagine the horror it was to be in any mental hospital over the last 70 years.
Don't give me any ideas.hah
Where is that place?
Good work caveman 💪💪 I live about 30 minutes north in Hamburg but want to explore this place its haunted I heard.
I definitely hate the snow ❄️ because it's to cold for me!!!
Lugar muinto dahora, te assistindo direto do Brasil
If people just went there and just explored and not to any damage, they may have rebuilt it. It makes me really sad that people just disrespect places😢
Agreed
I bet that place is hounted from Stan in the UK 🇬🇧
Great video love the abandoned
Thanks Robbie
Loved the power plant best.
I hope that someone saves that stained glass in the dome.
Hey Rick, do your Urbexing first, than it is Beer Time, at home, nothing wrong with a few beers! Enjoy! I really enjoy your Urbexing Videos, keep up the good work!
This place is really pretty but you really got to check out kings park psychiatric Long Island Ny it’s massive!!
You should go to waveley Hill from Stan in the UK 🇬🇧
Needs to be demo .be careful brother.but thanks for sharing
This place looks so dilapidated and collaspsing
Good video.
That place was constructed as a TB hospital.
You are correct!
Sounds like raining probably animals 🤔!!!
Everything is just falling apart 💔 so bad that it isn't funny 😔!!!
That looks like a trap!!!
Anyone notice the Star of David in the glass and floor of the main lobby? Wonder what that’s about?
Hi watching and it's March 20 2024
👍👍
Ranger Rick I don't think so because of the mess it's in!!!!
I agree with u.
No sleeping 😴 on the job!!!
lol
As bad of shape it's in that they need to be demolished and because there's so much lead paint and asbestos!!!😢
Ya.. I agree with you the building has seen better days.
I'm in Louisiana the vampire states l
The bathroom is "in contact" No it is intact. Video is great. Work on commentary. What makes these sort of videos interesting is knowledge of the building(s).
And never say "I'm not goin in there y'all" Thats what would seperate you from the average person that has toured, filmed, and posted their videos of this place a hundred times.
Take someone with you and really explore the nooks and crannies. This is video has been shot by a hundred people. Nothing new here.
If you want attention do something nobody else has. Research the history. Inform the viewer. Then actually take the viewer with you afterward to have those beers you were talking about and recap the adventure. Then tell us about your next one. Sell it.
Just wish you didn’t talk so much during your videos. Seemed like you were nervous tho you said you weren’t. Just my opinion.
