Laoküla, Harju County

Laoküla is a village in Lääne-Harju Parish, Harju County in northern Estonia.

The borders of the village extend beyond current dwellings, and so its area is home to several abandoned buildings and their ruins; some are from the Soviet era, and some from before.

In January 2008, the Estonian rap group Def Räädu released their video for "Vaatenurga turist", prominently featuring the building.

[2] In late 2015, the same ruins were featured in the last scene of the music video for "Faded", a song by Norwegian DJ Alan Walker.

"Faded" was at one point the 21st most-viewed video on YouTube, with over 2.8 billion views as of October 2020.
