Abandoned Places Kolmanskop The Diamond Mine Ghost Town Torque TM
The Sands of Time You step off the tour bus into the baking sun of the Namib Desert A worn sign stands outside of a small settlement Its old-fashioned letters welcome you to Kolmannskuppe or Kolmanskop Kolmanskop
Coleman’s Hill Kolmanskop comes from the German word for Coleman’s Hill Stories say a worker named Coleman left his oxcart on a nearby hill after it broke down Just beyond the sign shabby houses stand in the sands of the desert Their empty windows show only darkness
