Die ursprüngliche Datierung auf 1954 war an der Aufnahme des Reichstages festgemacht, auf der das Gebäude noch die historische Kuppel trägt. In mehreren Interneteinträgen ist als Jahr der Kuppelsprengung 1954 angegeben. Der Versuch hat auch tatsächlich stattgefunden, doch der Sprengsatz zündete nicht. Deshalb die Korrektur auf 1957. Zudem enthält der Film Aufnahmen aus dem Jahr 1960, erkennbar an Fahrzeugtypen und der Kinowerbung. Weitere Anmerkungen in den Kommentaren.

There is something I don't get...What city is this? And what year?

[@audinos4827]

A great video ruined by "Berlin 1954."

[@juliomontano9589]

Audinos 😭

[@alcubierrevj]

True, but the watermark doesn't need to be as tall as some of the buildings in Berlin.

[@self-confessedluddite269]

I'm pretty sure that this footage is from the summer of 1960, just one year before the wall was put up. If you look at 6:22, you can see an advertisement for the movie "Brennender Sands". This movie's West German release date was in July 1960.

[@JohnEllisLearningConsultant]

I agree, one shot clearly shows the East German flag, which was the same as West Germany's until October 1959.

[@claudekonqui554]

Amazing ! I was born in 1954. I visited Berlin for the very first time in December 2016. Such a young and lively town !

[@Tackytiger74]

Brilliant quality footage, utterly ruined by the fact that the title - "Berlin 1954" is obscuring a large portion of the screen throughout... shame.

[@holbirm]

Not from 1954!! There is an Opel 1958, Opel 1956, Ford Taunus 1960 and a VW Beetle from after 1958 amongst other cars from late 50's and early 60's

[@aussienick4520]

Amazing how the city seems to have recovered in just nine years, although a few streets do seem very empty and those ruined buildings are eerie.

[@Hisham23633]

I'ts amazing how they rebuilt their city in just 9 years, its been 30 years since the war and Beirut Lebanon still hasn't advanced as far as a single German year

[@Oldbmwr100rs]

Look at much of Haiti, after the quake most of the world went to rebuild the place, yet the people just fought and stood around demanding handouts. It likely looks hardly better then it did there just after the quake, yet billions have been wasted.

[@bias69]

It's a german hobby, destroy and rebuild. Now they're destroying again.

[@dickyt1318]

i was there in the mid 80's and East Berlin was largely still full of the shells of buildings. The U-bahn was still the was time rolling stock with the driver sitting in the open cab and the doors you slid closed [or not in our case as we were used to automatic closing doors]!

[@4chukwuebuka]

Oldbmwr100rs Germans got money from America to rebuild. The igbos in Nigeria rebuilt their cities after the civil war when the British slaughtered them.

A população de Berlim que reergueu sua cidade das cinza em dez anos demostra a coragem e amor à sua cidade , infelizmente no nosso pais não ocorre o mesmo , a começar pelas autoridades que para iniciar uma obra antes calculam quanto é possível desviar da obra ,e por parte da população tem muitos que rezam por QUANTO PIOR MELHOR demostrando pouco ou nenhum interesse por uma causa coletiva muito menos por sua cidade ou pais

[@kleinerbremer-de]

Ein sehr sehr wertvolles Filmdokument, keine Frage. Nicht nur für echte Oldtimer Freunde empfehlenswert anzusehen. Der kleine LLOYD im Abspann ist min. ein Jahr jünger und wahrscheinlich auch schon ein Lloyd-Alexander mit „weißen“ Kennzeichen - welche aber erst ab Juli 1956 an‘s Blech geschraubt werden durften… lloyd400 Punkt de Grüße

I was born in Berlin in 1954 till 1963. I still remember the bombed out building's in some areas. Moved to the U.S. late 60 . Wow

[@computername]

The letters are too small. We can still see a little bit of film..

[@timothysdog6130]

West Germany had an economic boom in the 1950s. It recovered very well

[@nev7711]

I don't think anyone in 1945, could believe that Germany would rebuild and move forward so quickly for a positive outcome compared to it's past.

[@snakepliskin5145]

In 10 years they did a pretty good job cleaning up. It would have taken 25 years if it happened here.

[@schmoldovia]

SCHADE ... da ist dieses liebevoll gestaltete Logo, in zwei Größen, orange und weiß, harmonisch, nicht einfach nur 1234 oder 0000, die Ziffern "1954" bilden ein Spannungsfeld, sind sowohl losgelöst und gleichwohl direkt Bezug nehmend und gebend auf die Zahlen im Titel "1957-1960". Statisch, ruhend, erhaben, das gibt soviel zum Nachdenken. Die Schrift ist zudem durchscheinend... eigentlich wunderschön ... doch im Hintergrund läuft irgendein Video durch, ständig in Bewegung, zeigt irgendetwas, jedoch so gut wie gar keine Buchstaben oder Zahlen, lenkt also nur ab von diesem wunderschönen Logo - Berlin1954. Davon wünschte ich mir mehr, größer und ohne störende Videos im Hintergrund.

[@canadude2010]

Nice highway and a nice amount of traffic on it.I wish that was my commute.

[@granskare]

now if the film were from 1959 or 1960, I may well have shown up in it :) I was in the air force and in Berlin for 2-3 days on tdy (temporary duty) and I think we were in the Farben building but my memory does not function so well...we had to fly in and out, no train which I did not like...thanks for a nice film of those early times.

Incredible how in 9 years life seems to be normal and the city is clean, aside form still damaged buildings of course. Great job, German people.

At 0:52 it begins to show the Russian War memorial. There are 5000 Russian soldiers buried there with one of the commanding Russian generals buried standing up, saluting and facing east toward Mother Russia. I was there in 1988 during my three-year tour flying C-9 Nightingales while stationed at Rhein-Main AB Germany. I traveled to East Germany twice before the wall came down in '89. Great Memories!

[@dimitridiamant5359]

This is very educational. Notice that there was only the most cursory check when crossing the sector lines. This is also the way it was in Vienna until that matter was properly settled in 1955; and the German situation should have been properly settled by then as well, the way Roosevelt and Stalin had agreed; but maybe Allen Dulles had other ideas.

[@dimitridiamant5359]

Let me elaborate on this. During the postwar years, Germany was supposed to be reunified, the way Austria was; and the Russians were not slow on this, because the Communist Party was significant in Germany even before Hitler. Thus, it had to be George Marshall who created something of a shock when he abruptly created what amounted to a rump state of West Germany. He even scrapped the Weimar Constitution while he was at it. If this hadn't happened, there never would have been a DDR.

[@caezar55]

Are you sure the Soviets would have given up their German territory after losing 20 million men to conquer it? I'm not so sure. Austria was not important to them. Germany was.

1974 I visited both West and East Berlin while I was stationed at Kirchgoens, W. Germany. West Berlin was a vibrant thriving city while East Berlin was still relatively rubble strewn from 30 years past. In West Berlin we/I were allowed to go and visit any place we wanted to see. In East Berlin we were escorted by East German officials at all time and not allowed to talk to civilians on the street. The East Germans had nothing to show us other then their Russian generated stores and Russian war memorials. East Berlin was still a wreck compared to West Berlin. No wonder the Russians had to build a wall to keep the people inside. In 1980 I was reassigned to Wiesbaden and then Kaiserslautern, W. Germany. I again visited West Berlin and to be honest not much had changed between the two cities or communism versus capitalism.
