Third Reich In Ruins - Munich Then and Now

[@Hänfling-bird]

In one of the Munich bombing raids in July 1944, my father in law lost both his parents and his 3 siblings. He was pulled out of the rubble of their house and was alone at the age of 10. Fortunately, he was later able to meet a wonderful woman (who, after the war, at age 10 , together with her mother and two younger brothers, had been driven out of their home in the Sudetenland) and they managed to have and bring up a new family together. My father in law passed away a year ago at age 89. Always remembered. RIP.

[@toml.1408]

I was in Munich for about 3-days in November of 1982, at the start of a 2-week vacation through central Europe. It was a great experience. I hope to return someday.

[@WW2Wayfinder]

It's a wonderful city so I hope you can make it back there soon!

[@areaman7725]

Superb content. As usual, the Then and Now photos are very surreal and compelling. Many thanks and please keep up the good work.

[@WW2Wayfinder]

Thank you! Keep an eye out for part 2 to this episode as I've still got a few more locations in the city to find!

[@33rdusa]

Another great job! The Then and Nows may be my favorite presentations. Nothing to do with WWII but my Munich story is this. As a member of the 33rd US Army Headquarters Band, we played a reception one afternoon at the US Consulate there just as the 1972 Olympics was beginning. We wore our dress blue uniforms, of course. During a break I was able to freely mingle among the guests. Got very close to the former Grace Kelly, then Princess of Monaco. With her hair up she still looked radiant in her early 40's. Jesse Owens was there and still looked pretty fit for a man of around 60. Burt Lancaster was also there. Looked like just he wanted to get away from the crowd and came outside into the garden where some of us had gathered. He was very casual and friendly. The same age as Jesse Owens, he still looked incredibly fit. He had been a circus acrobat in his younger days before Hollywood. We went back to Heidelberg after a couple of days and I then we heard of the takeover of the Israeli athletes. The mention of Munich brings back so many memories for me. Thanks.

[@WW2Wayfinder]

Oh wow! That must have been quite the experience both during and after getting back to Heidelberg. I've walked around the Olympic Village in the city and it's a wonderful spot and has a real feel of looking to the future about it, but clearly marred by those horrific events that occurred that year.

[@francisgene3890]

I have been living in Munich for 6 years now and I must say, it's by far the best City in Europe that I have been to. Great video!

[@WW2Wayfinder]

@@francisgene3890 it’s a great city isn’t it! Especially this time of year! Glad you enjoyed the video and thank you for taking the time to watch!

[@dradden1556]

[@troykauffman3963]

Great presentation Jon, love seeing these then and now pictures. Thank you very much.🫡

[@WW2Wayfinder]

You’re most welcome Troy, glad you enjoyed it. Munich really is a fascinating place to spend a few hours and small enough to cover most of it on foot too!

[@bonhoeffer9000]

Excellent, then & now pictures , keep up the good work!

[@WW2Wayfinder]

Thank you!

[@UAuaUAuaUA]

Great content, and we can see that you made a real and personal effort to make it as good as possible. I had three relatives and many friends who have survived that time in Munich. During the 1970s, memories were still fresh and I grew up listening to interesting stories of the war years. In late April and early May 1945, most German soldiers in that area just switched to civilian clothes and walked home. That's why they had a problem finding and filming a few hundred German POWs. The forests around Munich had plenty of weapons, ammunition and German uniforms everywhere. Boys went there to "play", and this bad habit did end badly for many of them.

[@WW2Wayfinder]

Thank you! I can imagine the amount of munitions left at the end of the war and young boys wanting to ‘play soldiers’. Sadly an all too common tale at the end of any conflict.

[@firstcitytraveler]

Jon, another excellent Then and Now. I look forward to your next video.

[@WW2Wayfinder]

Glad you enjoyed it! I’ll have a part 2 to this out at some point as there’s so many to find there!

[@brycecrousore1985]

[@WW2Wayfinder]

Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it!!!

[@mikehall5815]

Wow, great job Jon. The architecture is totally stunning! I may be wrong but the people there seem to take pride in their City. Munich would definitely be on my bucket list to visit. Stay safe.

[@WW2Wayfinder]

Thank you Mike! For the most part Bavarians really take pride in where they live and Munich always looks good even at the height of the Oktoberfest!

[@HeavyDragoon]

Ever since seeing and reading those original "Then and Now" magazines from the '70's to the present which formed my part of youth and bringing history alive..you have done a remarkable job here and without question spent a great deal of time and effort not only tracking, tracing and confirming pictures and accounts, but have also done some superb editing and producing here which with my small thanks here is not enough credit to you. Please keep up your hard work..I (amongst many others also..for sure) deeply appreciate your efforts and (we) are rewarded by your work. SUPERB!

[@WW2Wayfinder]

Thank you so much! I'm also a big fan of the Then and Now books and magazines and they've certainly been a big part in my inspiration for tracking down these locations! I'll have another Munich T&N episode out soon as I have so many more photos from the city I couldn't fit them all in to one episode!

[@andrewdiack8162]

Do you mean the 'After the Battle' magazines from around 1974 which you can still buy online now? Used one on the Falaise Gap battles when in Normandy in 1989.

[@HeavyDragoon]

I was in the US Army in nuremberg in 1966 to 1967, and was a dental Lab tech. I had a german man working for me in my section, named Victor Zimmerman, and he was a surviver of stalingrade. He died while I was there and He came from Munchin, and was buried there, and my whole unit went there to honor him...jack johnsen

[@WW2Wayfinder]

Oh wow thank you for sharing that Jack. Did Herr Zimmerman ever talk about Stalingrad at all before he passed?

[@jackjohnsen8506]

@@WW2Wayfinder He told me some stories and How he was able to survive, because he made Dental appliances, for the Russian officers and sargents, while in priosn camp. He brought in his regiment reunion book, which showed Him standing by an 88 mm gun, in the snow, and a santa Claus, in 1943.....Victor could not speak English and I could not speak much german, so we had a lauguage we called Gerlish, and always had a good undersatnding of what the other was saying...funny thing,,,when Victor would make a small mistake, I would say "Victor, vas is loss mit this?" Victor would say "Nix mier, was da Newie man" and we would both laugh....I miss him still.....

Great video. A lot of work to put these together. Really enjoy the then and now videos. Something I always try to do when visiting historical sites is to check old photos.

Excellent presentation. Thanks.

[@Baskerville22]

Whenever I view collections of photos of devastated German cities in the aftermath of WW2, i'm reminded of Hitler's boast in September 1933, ""Give me ten years and you won't recognize Germany"". I'm always amazed at how rapidly those cities were made habitable and prosperous, even taking the Marshall Plan into account.

[@nerd1000ify]

My grandfather was a merchant mariner in the '50s and recalls a visit to Kiel, which as one of the main U-boat construction areas was very heavily bombed. He says that even then much of the waterfront was just immense piles of rubble and debris. Munich doesn't seem to have experienced such total destruction, so they had a better starting point for rebuilding!

This is a really good video. Both the restoration and the redevelopment of the buildings have been sensitively completed by the authorities. I am also stuck by the cleanliness and tidiness of the Marienplatz - central London is an absolute midden compared with Munich! And I hope you enjoyed that beer, Jon!

[@WW2Wayfinder]

Thank you! The beer was excellent! The Marienplatz was very clean but from what I've seen of the city and especially when I've visited in the summer it's not too dissimilar from London and the amount of construction work there is insane!

[@warbirdwf]

It's quite amazing to me how much things have not changed that much in many of the locations of your then and now photos. I was in Normandy last year touring the main landing beaches and sites. So many of the towns in Normandy had not changed much in 80 years. I really enjoy your then and now photos as it's just a reminder how fast time passes for us all. WWII was 80 years ago. I bet that's hard to believe for the remaining WWII vets still alive today.

Hi Jon Great work mate! It really amazes me how that despite all the devastation that was inflicted during the war, that the reconstruction work since to transform the city back to its semi original former self, is an epic story in itself.

Keep up the great work . I am definitely looking forward to your visit to Cassio. I was last there in 1986 while on a Med deployment.

Dear Pfadfinder: As a USArmyBrat family, we lived in Muenchen 1956/57. I returned in 2006 and 2010. Coupla notes: 7:32, Rathaus. There's a pleasant, public outdoor eating spot inside the courtyard, beyond the RathausKeller sign. --- 6:08 Alter Peter Church (way to the rear of scene) is the structure you didn't mention. The call signal for Bavarian Boradcasting uses the notes from the drinking 🍻song: "As long as Old St Peter's stands on the Isar 's banks, they'll always be a Munich. " - A climb up its tower gives a nice view of the Altstadt. I know these places because a native showed me. rip+Helene 2023. Finally, 14:49 Justiz-Palast. Mom had to show up there to answer a traffic ticket issued by a Bavarian cop. - I know this because Mom had to tell Dad 😇 Servus und Ade! Let's meet again soon.
