Abandoned Ghost Town Fossa in Italy
High Resolution JPEG Picture of This is a photo of Fossa in Italy, abandoned after an earthquake and now a ‘ghost town’. The town is located near the city of L’Aquila in the Abruzzo region of central Italy. To put it into perspective, the town is located only 100 km from Rome. The heavy earthquake, that happened in April 2009, damaged the 13th century town extensively. This might even be the worst earthquake that happened in 30 years. Hundreds of people died, and thousands of people were left without their homes. In the years after, preservation and restoration works took place to protect the town from falling into further decay. These efforts are still proceeding very slowly, and political wrongdoing isn’t helping the progress either. Unfortunately, this might be one of the many Italian towns that vanishes from existence.
