We are not the only ones captivated by the allure of old “ruins.” Historical evidence suggests that in the 18th and 19th centuries, medieval castles, no longer serving as fortifications, were deliberately allowed to crumble and decay, as they possessed an “aesthetically pleasing” quality. While modern historians may raise objections, the reasoning behind this practice is sound.
In cases where genuine ruins were not readily available, people resorted to creating faux ruins. Architect Johann Ferdinand Hetzendorf von Hohenberg, for example, designed a set of “Roman ruins” for the garden of the Schönbrunn Palace in Vienna, Austria. During that era, the Hapsburg rulers, like many trendsetters, held a fascination with the ancient world and found the concept of faux ruins quite fashionable.
So, as you explore these abandoned houses, consider the layers of history, curiosity, and aesthetic appreciation that make them so intriguing.
