Almost caught at Cinema Varia

Today Hickhack (www.urbex-and-more.com) and myselve made a visit to Cinema Varia.

When we finished making pictures we put the camera gear back in the cars and decided to take a coffee in the cafe at the other site of the street.
We just walked to the cafe, a policecar drove right to the cinema.

Probably some one had seen us climbing out the building.
We climbed out very very silent and with caution, but could not prevent some people (about 40...) did see us.
Some of them (or maybe more) called the police.

Because we try to look like locals and the cams are allready in the car the police did not take notice of us.
Once inside the cafe another policecar came and checked the back of the building.

We just finished our coffee, cool as we are, and returned to our cars to check out the next location...;-)

More pictures at the website.

Timely getaway there mate, great pictures. That place looks very old

I always look forward to your next report bartje - always a cracking site. Thats a wonderful building. Guessing by the layout and lack of bright colours its an old place. Excellent stuff. More please.

I love the third pic of the balcony seating area especially. Love them all, but that's my favourite. Looks like you had a close shave there with your exit.

Excellent pics as always.

nicely done!

nice one matey, and GREAT pics! this silent revolution of entering and capturing is in my opinion VITAL, all this history that's just gonna get pulled down unrecorded, it's a TRAVESTY!

well done, glad you didn't get caught..

wow, some really good pics there, looks like an amazing explore!!!
at you having coffee watching the police!!!

Lol at your narrow escape! I didn't expect the building to be so old...it's totally delightful. Absolutely love that chandelier. Lovely explore.

Great pics and report as always I am so jealous

I have never seen an old cinema outside the UK

Out of interest what are the laws where ever Cinema Varia is?

Great pics and superb escape.

Nice pics, that looks a very cool place
