Titles read: "A City of contrasts - STUTTGART".
Germany.
General view of Stuttgart. Street scenes show a policeman standing in a tower and directing traffic. We see the railway station, town hall and the old quarter, showing traditional buildings.
More shots of the buildings of the town, with good shots of modern buildings beside the older styles of architecture. Brief shot of indoor swimming pool.
Story ends abruptly - according to paperwork the missing section showed Stuttgart squares and parks followed by locals watching an English troupe of dancers in a club or restaurant.

It hurts a lot what German city have become after war. Before the war every single city in Germany was beautiful. Today there's almost nothing left. Hearts bleeding

So what do we learn from this? Better never start a war again! ☝️

Stuttgart still is a very beautiful city. I recognized a lot of the places in this video.

Omg.. I have no words for this. Just a few hours ago, I was at the main station, where also the Königsstrasse is, a shopping street. It’s all so different… the houses were so cute! And those other buildings- that don’t exist anymore since 1945’. It somehow hurts, the town hall looked amazing, wayyy more then the one we’ve got today, which is compared to the old one pretty ugly. I’m so glad I got this in my recommended. The fact that I was just there today and imagined how it looked 90 years ago is just crazy. Thank you for this video! 💛🖤

It was all lost by the terrible ww II. So sad.

Thank you for uploading!! This is very worth seeing. The "Tritschler" company shown in 0:47 still exists today on exactly this spot (but in a new building). While the Schocken Kaufhaus was demolished in the 60s and the Breuninger building during the war, the beautiful Tagblatt tower (1:18) and the Weissenhof restaurant (1:38) are still standing!

Indeed.

Thank you for this comment. I was walking often next to the Tagblatt tower and thought it’s alienated to the rest of the Stadtmitte view, but thanks to you I understand it’s importance.

Stuttgart ist das übelste was moderne Architektur anrichten kann. Das alte Rathaus ist ein Symbol für zeitlose Schönheit und Ästhetik in einem. Es ist so zum kotzen das man nach über 70 Jahren es nicht kapiert hat, dass das " dem wahren schönen guten " nicht umgesetzt wird. Frankfurt, Dresden ,Potsdam.... wenigstens manche Städte machen es vor .. aber Stuttgart ist eine Betonwüste mit 70er oder 80er Zweckbauten die null aber auch null Ambiente ausstrahlen. Eine Rekonstruktion würde ich als Steuerzahler unterstützen denn jeder Profit davon später.

I completely agree, i hope in the future they restore the marktplatz and rathaus as they were before WW2.

As a foreigner living in Stuttgart, it's so sad to see how different it looks now, completely removed of its once beautiful buildings

There is still a part in the city center that survived the bombs. The "Bohnenviertel" is so beautiful, a must see in Stuttgart. Although no one knows it. I found houses must be at least 500 years old- its pure history hidden in the center of Stuttgart. The part that needs to be reconstructed is the area between Schillerplatz to Tübinger Strasse. Close to Eberhardtstrasse for some reason there is also a part of the the old town that survived the bombing terror. So it wouldnt even cost that much to rebuild the removed parts of the old town.

with what money? People needed housing, food, work. You think, the ones that bombed our cities also wanted to give the money to reconstruct nthem afterwards? No, the wanted to eliminate our history by plan. And they succeeded. We are a people without history now.

Es ist schade, dass man in Stuttgart nichts Rekonstrieren möchte, weil Stuttgart das Potenzial hatte, eine richtig schöne Stadt zu werden. Leider hat man diese Chance auch beim Wiederaufbau vertan und viel intaktes zerstört; so war der Rathausturm unversehrt und wurde erst nach dem Krieg abgerissen (ein bisschen von unten ist noch da)

Der Marktplatz ist ja schon in dauerhafter Diskussion. Ich sehe eine Schwierigkeit vor allem darin, dass es Wohnungen und Geschäfte in den Gebäuden dort gibt. Einen Amtsbau z. B. kann man leichter abreissen und ersetzen mit einer Rekonstruktion. Ein Investor würde sich für den Marktplatz finden, da bin ich mir sicher und nach den Projekten in Frankfurt und Berlin auch genug Leute dafür zu bekommen. Man müsste nur die Leute so lange woanders unterbringen, bis die Rekonstruktionen fertig wären.
