Kolmannskuppe is a former diamond mining town close to the costal town of Lüderitz in southern Namibia.

Active until the 30s, it's a ghost town today that has partially been reclaimed by the Namib desert around it.

During the years 1908 to 1913 the area mined over a metric ton of diamonds. The town had plenty of amenities with electricity, running water and an ice factory to stock the fridges in every house.

@snepshots what’s both amazing and terrifying to me about these photos is how much and how accurately this looks like the post-apocalyptic California desert scenes in Horizon Forbidden West 👀

@AliCatTomskit there are a lot of photos of that location. So maybe they were used as inspiration and reference for the game design.
