On our trip to Lower Silesia and Karkonosze we accidentally noticed nice, old, abandoned train station in small city called Lubawka (Liebau in Schlesien). It was so interesting and so deserted that we decided to take some pictures of it and later find some stories to explain how it became such a ruin. After googleing for few minutes I've discovered that in 2008 train station building was sold to some unknown investor who promised to transfer it in 2 years into 5-star hotel. Unfortunately it's 2010 and station is exactly as it was 2 years ago - a ruin. The history of this place is even more fascinating - it turned out that station burnt down in 1991. Before that it was very important place on Czechoslovakia-Poland border and you can notice it watching the size of building. It's hard to believe but since 2007 in the summer time this station is open and on the weekends trains are coming here and departing from here! Poland is strange, but really interesting country!
