To the residents of Windyville, Legends of America makes a formal apology for the irresponsible actions of some individuals after they visited this page."Īt the crossroads of Missouri Routes "K" and "MM" in Dallas County, sits the silent town of Windyville, Missouri. This kind of irresponsibility in other locations has led, in the past, to historical buildings being torn down, residents defending their property at gunpoint, and numerous arrests. These "pests" have been seen driving carelessly, and have been known to trespass, disturb area families, and vandalize property.įor those who are guilty, you have ruined this and certain other stories from ever being posted on this website. Windyville residents tell us of dozens of late night uninvited guests who roam the countryside, often drunk and disorderly. "Because of the irresponsibility of some "so-called" ghost hunters, and more likely, curious thrill-seekers, this page has been taken down.Īt the request of a signed petition of sixty area residents, we are only happy to oblige in removing this page when hearing of the obnoxious outrages perpetuated on this community by the carelessness and complete lack of respect on the part of certain individuals. But I don't blame them for taking it down, but if the folks in question were even a little bit courteous, it wouldn't have been necessary. We parked a ways down the street in an empty parking lot and walked the few blocks back to these buildings.Unfortunately, they've taken the page down.

Just take one exit off the highway and follow the road until you get there. Lots to see and it’s super easy to get there. I just snapped a photo from the street.Īgain, this is definitely worth the trip. The last building I’m including is just an abandoned house on main street with this serious Keep Out sign. The next building on this side of the street was the one in the most disrepair, as it was missing walls.

But the view through the windows was fine. The first of these had a no trespassing sign so we didn’t go in. The third, fourth and fifth buildings were across the street from the others. I didn’t know if this would be the case with any buildings because we didn’t see any photos inside anything when we researched Moselle online. The third building was maybe the coolest, because there was an open back entrance to the basement and lots of stuff to see down there. The light bar at the top right of the photo is coming in from under the front door. The back basement entrance to the building had also collapsed. The second building along the road had a padlocked front door, which was good because from the window I peeked in you could see that the floor had fallen through. This was the building we did not walk around or attempt to look inside. There’s a lot to see, it’s easy to find, and easily accessible. Before I move on to the photos, I just want to say this is definitely a place worth visiting and exploring. There was another that looked like the others, but there were some potted plants in the upstairs window and what looked like a security system, so we just left that building alone completely. Five buildings, for sure, were uninhabited when we went.

What would probably be considered the main street area, though, is mostly abandoned. There was a decent amount of activity on the road and there were definitely houses that were inhabited. I am uncertain how the townsfolk of Moselle feel about urban explorers wandering around their town, but we weren’t bothered by anyone. The abandoned buildings in Moselle, MO are considered by many to be a ghost town but people do still live there.
