Yes, you can set each location to public, followers-only, or private. For sensitive abandoned buildings, we recommend restricting visibility.

Locations get removed when they violate our guidelines, for example exact addresses to sensitive sites, copyrighted images, or if the place no longer exists. You'll receive a notification if that happens.

Premium gives you AI-powered descriptions, advanced statistics, more upload capacity, and a customizable profile. Plus, you're directly supporting the platform's development.

Any time under Settings, then Subscription. Cancellation takes effect at the end of your billing period. You keep full access to all Premium features until then.

We accept credit card, PayPal, and SEPA direct debit. Payments are handled securely through Stripe. We never store your payment details.

Entering abandoned buildings without permission is trespassing in most countries. Always check the local laws before you go. Verlasszination doesn't encourage breaking any laws. We document abandoned places.

Never go alone, wear solid footwear, and bring a flashlight. Test floors and stairs before stepping on them, avoid basements with standing water, and always tell someone where you're going. Asbestos and mold are common in old buildings, so an FFP2 mask is essential gear.
