  • In danger.

    Thoughout time, it has hosted concerts or big events in general. Nowadays it remains closed for visits, is not in official use, and is in poor condition: Bathrooms are broken, there is thick bushed all over. The outside gates were welded for no one to enter. There is military custody around the building.
