Cheltenham Wetlands Park was once part of the U.S. Naval Radio Station, Cheltenham, Maryland. It was commissioned in 1939.

“The original antenna fields, comprising creosoted wood telephone poles and metal antenna towers, were located in the acreage surrounding the buildings. All metal antenna poles have been removed from the installation. Some abandoned creosoted wood poles remain in the wooded and swampy sections of the installation.

Established as a radio receiving station before World War II, the installation's mission evolved to administration during the Cold War era.”

It was a beautiful Fall day today as we watched this particular fisherman bring in a few fish - one which resembled a Walleye - there were a number of small boats out there. I was stunned there were any fish remaining in the Ohio near Louisville as polluted as it is. The runoff from Indiana as you will see in a following photo teems with surface oil with a reddish tinge. The "beach" itself is litter infested with plastic bottles, jugs, tires, drums and oil containers. What humans, the power companies and industries upstream have done to this river, future generations and the people who live along it and downstream is an abomination and criminal.

There was some type of other animal in this cave but I wouldn't let Pancake go in too far - she makes a particular noise when she spots a sick or wounded animal, which she did.

The Haunted Tunnel In Louisville That’s Not For The Faint Of Heart

Editor’s note: an earlier version of this article stated the cave is open for exploration. This is incorrect. The cave is closed to the public due to safety concerns.

 

If anyone brings up a haunted tunnel in Louisville, they’re most likely referring to the infamous “body chute” found at Waverly Hills Sanatorium. It’s been covered by many paranormal experts and television shows, and is available for exploration via paid guided tours. Famous as it may be, Waverly Hills isn’t the only haunted tunnel around here; there are plenty of other locations in Louisville that are rumored to be haunted, one of which is an extremely creepy tunnel. It’s nicknamed Sauerkraut Cave and is hidden in the middle of E.P. Tom Sawyer State Park, completely unknown to most of the visitors who jog right past it. Of course, as with most hidden tunnels, Sauerkraut Cave comes with a dark, hidden past…

 

E.P. Tom Sawyer Park was once known as Central State Hospital, or the "Lakeland Asylum."

 

Built in 1873, this property was constructed to accommodate a maximum of 1600 people, but by 1940 the hospital housed over 2400. These cramped, understaffed quarters had horrible living conditions for the patients, many of which were mentally ill, elderly, and even just the impoverished left with nowhere else to go. Sadly, crude and often fatal treatments such as lobotomies occurred and the death count was high. Today, a wooden fence has been rebuilt around the old cemetery to remember those who suffered and passed here, which is estimated to be around 5,000.

By the 1960s, the attitude toward the treatment of mental illness began to shift and the Courier Journal published several articles criticizing the conditions of the hospital.

 

As people began to focus on more effective short term care, the hospital lost funding and eventually went bankrupt. Central State Hospital was demolished in 1997, as the interior had become badly deteriorated and dangerous.

 

Today, Sauerkraut Cave is the only remaining portion of the old hospital.

 

This "cave" was built by the hospital and used for food storage. The unit is said to have gained its name due to the great amount of sauerkraut that was once stored here. Some believe that patients used this tunnel to hide and escape from the hospital, while others have more sinister theories about what may have happened here.

Unfortunately, the cave is not open to the public due to safety concerns.

  

This tunnel is incredibly creepy, even without the backstory of the asylum. Since the cave is inaccessible to the public, you'll want to check out this spooky video by YouTube user Artificial Mayo that shows just how creepy, dark, and damp this tunnel really is!

Not sure why their display bought up their Internal network here. One might want to be cautious at Home Depot this holiday season. Management wasn't concerned however was nice enough to issue a refund today.
