Great work, but there is a mistake at 2:01. This tower is not the 'Frauentorturm' close to the main railway station. This pic shows the 'Neutorturm' in the north-west of the city. It was taken in the 'Johannisstraße'.

[@mationplays1500]

Thanks, Yeah this could be Neutorturm indeed, they look very similar, where did you get the information that the footage is Neutorturm?

[@mccoy68a]

@@mationplays1500 Sorry that I didn't answer earlier. Shame on me. I have to correct my statement at little: It's more likely the tower at Spittlertor. As you said, the towers all look alike. I live in Nürnberg an passed the Frauentor 1000 times. The major 'proof' that it can't be the Frauentorturm: On your 1945-footage you can see a wall on the right side of the tower. There never was a wall at this place at Frauentorturm. Actually there is the Königsstrasse. Have a look at google maps 3D "Spittlertor, Nürnberg" from SW and you will see your tower from 45. But anyway, who cares ;-)

What is special in Nuremberg is that they rebuilt houses in their original shape. They didn’t rebuilt it with ugly modern architecture, because they were well aware of the historical importance of Nuremberg and do preserved the architectural looks of the city.

[@Die-Sophie]

Unfortunately, I see it differently. Most of the houses were built in the terrible style of the 50s. The best example here is the town hall on the main market (Hauptmarkt).

[@TheDutchMitchell]

It’s so sad that all of these historical city centers were lost to pointless terror bombings.. Germany was once so beautiful!

Mitchell Well that's what happens when a generation comes along and is not responsible enough to maintain the nation in a state that they inherited from their fathers , the same can be said about the British who after the war decided to go to war with themselves and completely destroy their entire industrial base something that the Germans were never able to achieve , the destruction of British manufacturing and industry was absolutely complete thereby being the first nation to industrialize and also the first nation to deindustrialize .

The English have always hated the Germans. Because, from Germany came great creators in the whole range of arts and sciences from the Renaissance to the present day, including: Dürer, Holbein, Rubens (painting), Goethe, Thomas Mann (literature), Hegel, Kant, Nietzsche, Schopenhauer (philosophy), Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz, Carl Friedrich Gauss, Bernard Riemann, Georg Cantor, David Hilbert, Felix Klein, Hermann Schwartz (Mathematics) Beethoven, Bach, Strauss, Wagner, Brahms and Mendelssohn (Classical Music)

Großartige Arbeit!

[@mationplays1500]

Danke sehr :)

[@chrisallen7911]

Why in the world, when something was built back, did they have to change the original looks of the buildings? Why did they not restore them as they were for centuries? Good example was St Petersburg Russia. Everything was destroyed there as well. When they decided to rebuild after the War, they made the decision to restore EVERYTHING just as it HAD BEEN. If you visit today, you can hardly believe only a few walls were left after WWII.

[@Cry2DeepLP]

No Money.

[@joyliberty8500]

you won't believe how much were old buildings devastated the last couple of years. I do not know if money was involved, but the city decided to rip off some beautiful old buildings to build communist square hotels. it aches my heart

[@metridix1452]

01:05 They built a wall arround the fountain to (successfully) prevent it from getting demaged Greetings from Nürnberg :)

[@chrisallen7911]

As an American Historian, I can understand the Allies wanting to stop their enemies, but destroying Ancient Cities, buildings, fountains, museums, artwork, and private homes and collections was absolutely REDICULOUS. Not to mention the bombing created firestorms that killed hundreds if not thousands of innocent old people and children. That was done to those of us who live in the Southern United States. During our War between the States, the Northern army led by Sherman and others used a complete SCORCH EARTH Policy on Southerners. During the last years of the War only old women and seriously injured and children were left. Our cites and homes and public buildings were mostly destroyed. Our great Plantation houses were looted and burned Those who were left were homeless and nearly starved to death and afterwards our land was taken over by Yankee carpetbaggers who stole what was left....Pray that sort of lunacy never happens again to Europe and the USA.

[@dangibbs5390]

Britain desperately wanted this war to destroy Germany morally, culturally and economically in a last ditch attempt to preserve the British Empire. The firebombing and destruction of the old city centers of German cities was absolutely intentional, although you see RAF reports of these large raids as being designed to attack rail yards and industry, most of those reports are clearly lies!

War and the ensuing destruction is horrible. The best way to avoid it is to not start a war in the first place. Both Germany and the C.S.A. (BTW I was born and raised in Germany and as a teenager moved to one of those states that attacked U.S. armed forces in the early 1860's)

[@fluffyusa]

@@fosterfuchs you lost me? Your comment to avoid war is is to not a war in the first place. Iraq/Afghanistan/Libya and many other places. I served in the US Military and I married a German and still in the Nuremberg AO since 93'. The Versailles Treaty and the arrogance, power hunger of man who wants more.

War heute dort. Nürnberg ist seelenlos und hässlich. Es macht mich traurig, die Masse an hässlichsten Gebäuden aus den 50ern zu sehen. Die hier gezeigten Beispiele sind natürlich positiv zu sehen, aber halt nur die Spitze des Eisbergs. Klar, es war kein Geld da, die Baulücken mussten geschlossen werden. Aber es tut weh, das alles zu sehen.
