- St. Kevin's Hospital stands conspicuously on a hill high above Cork City, Ireland. Founded in the 1840s. it served as an insane asylum to treat people who were the victims of illness, abandonment or general misfortune.
The Asylum has a troubling history with reports of abuse including patients being housed all day without activities as well as inadequate sanitary facilities. The Asylum was even once described as a "Chapter of Horrors".
The complex consists of several buildings including dormitories, a hospital, a chapel and the Asylum itself - each building was closed at a different point in time but the Asylum, the last such building to close, was shuttered for good in 2002.
The complex is owned by the Irish Health Service Executive (HSE) which has defended its "rigorous security" at the site (I call bullshit on that one).
The Asylum caught fire in 2017 gutting the building.
Wow never seen as much of it as ye . Thanks lads ..i feel uneasy . Its creapy
Thanks for checking us out
Lads is this part of the same complex as St Anne's Asylum? That's the mega long complex also above the river which i read somewhere held up to 21,000 which is hard to believe i know.
I was there Today I am not sure have they knocked it down as they are now construction it for houses and apartments as I was told by locals what a shame as I was going to explore it till I seen it been used as a construction site
Thanks for the update. A big part of doing these videos is to preserve the memory of these places. It's a shame when an abandoned building is no longer with us.
