Ghost Town of Belchite

Ghost Town of Belchite

Belchite, Spain

Literally a ghost town. Locals report hearing cries and screams at night across the abandoned ruins.

History

The town was the site of the Battle of Belchite in 1937, which resulted in the deaths of thousands and the near-total destruction of the original village.  Following the war, a new town was built nearby, but the old one, known as Belchite Viejo, was left as it was—a stark, silent memorial to the horrors of war.
