A little more than one year ago I got a visit from some fellow Urbexers coming from Canada with a film crew, the producers of "Behind de Camera" and "Crimes of Fashion". We had a wonderful adventure together in the Central Thermique and one episode of the television series photoXplorers is about that visit. As we all know now, here in Luxembourg, the Central Thermique will be destroyed very soon and is now in a very bad condition. Vandals, sprayers and metal thieves found their way into the central and left the central in a state of desolation. In march 2010 the Central will be officially destroyed. The time we went together into the Central, the building was still protected by the authorities and the atmosphere inside the building was amazing. All this belongs now to the past but the episode dedicated to the Central Thermique reflects exactly the atmosphere of the building at its best times. The whole series can be watched on Travelchannel. For the lucky ones of us, here in Luxembourg, the series may be watched on german Travelchannel over Astra (satellite). The first episode starts on November 30th at 21h15 CET. Program (on german Travelchannel photoXplorers is called "Fotografische Zeitreisen"):

Thanks JC Thanks Jean-Claude for your guidance into that amazing monster. Our time in Luxembourg will not be forgotten. One of my all time favourites to capture on video. Remember the gas mask ?  |

CT wird abgerissen. :-((( Hey Jean-Claude! Danke für die Infos zum TV Beitrag. Ich bin froh das wir urban-aixer mit Andy der CT einen Besuch abgestattet haben. Irgendwie stimmt es mich traurig das der Koloss jetzt abgerissen wird, die Tour durch das Gebäude hat einen bleibenden Eindruchk hinterlassen. |

Thanks for your comments @Danny: Of course I remember the gas mask!  You were really lucky to see that great building in its best times. Now it is really sad to see the distruction that is happening every day. @Frank: Ich bin schon gespannt wie der Beitrag aussehen wird. Aber es wird bestimmt toll. Du hattest dann auch Glück die CT noch intakt zu sehen und es freud mich für dich das zu hören. |
