Waverly Hills Sanatorium

Standing atop a secluded hill in southwest Louisville, the Waverly Hills Sanatorium is one of the most famous abandoned structures in North America. Spanning over five stories and designed in impressive Tudor Gothic architecture, the main building once served as a state-of-the-art facility dedicated to treating patients suffering from the devastating outbreak of tuberculosis, commonly known as the White Plague, in the early to mid-20th century.Today, Waverly Hills is celebrated both as a preserved historical monument and a hotspot for paranormal enthusiasts worldwide. Visitors can explore its colossal hallways, view the iconic open-air patient porches, and experience the infamous body chute (a 500-foot underground tunnel originally built to transport supplies and later used to discreetly transport deceased patients). Whether you are drawn by a fascination with medical history, architectural preservation, or ghosthunting lore, stepping onto the grounds of Waverly Hills offers an unforgettable and deeply evocative experience.
