Beautiful architecture and clean streets. The fasades of these houses have an interesting structure and are not boring as the concrete jungles made after WW II. Looks like they have managed to remove the amounts of dirt made by all the thousands of horses very efficient. Today have concrete hells, junkies and dog's poo on the street.
Capitalist infrastructure. Since it was becoming the ruling ideology during and after the world wars, it's what the world was rebuilt for after all the old infrastructure was obliterated. Centered around individualistic transport and housing. Designed to be so cripplingly efficient that it ironically is even less efficient than the old infrastructure.
These cities have been faithfully restored wherever possible. I believe the Royal Palace (Königliches Schloss) in Berlin was just recently reconstructed.
@@dbyers3897 The Berliner Schloss (Castle of Berlin) or Berliner Stadtschloss is a reconstruction that lasted from 2013 to 2020 and was the subject of much controversy in Germany.
I was stationed in Darmstadt Deutschland 1983 - 1985, US Army. I got to see so much beautiful Architecture of the OLD Country and Yes a lot did survive throughout the entire nation. Even the base I was on Cambri Fritz Kasern, a previous Cavalry base still in the old style of cobblestone walk ways and roads. The shot of King Ludwig Schloss Neuschwanstein and Linderhof Palace. A must to go and see inside and out.

I have a picture of my great-grandfather who stands at attention with his regiment, while the Kaiser and Hinbenburg have come for an inspection close to the end of WWI. He survived the Battle of Verdun and was awarded the Iron Cross. I still have his war diary, identification tags and my brother has his Iron Cross.
WW I was not that destroying for german territory as WW 2. My grandma told me: She was sitting at a window 30 km south of Dortmund in the middle of the night 1944... and Dortmund burned so furious (heavy industry), that she could read a Newspaper at here window at midnight... When the refugees came from Syria 2015, I could always explain to them: The eldest german people understand your situation far better, because they know, what war means: My wife came from Idleb/Aleppo in Syria... She fled from a Suchoi-Jet in low altitude the same way, as my grandma did from a WW2-plane, trying to kill her by machinegun-fire... Thanks for your comment... you see: It made me think a bit ❣
C'est superbe, c'est si beau, si nostalgique. Cela donne tellement envie de vivre au milieu de ces belles et innocentes gens et choses. Mais tout cela a disparu... Autres temps, autres mœurs. Merci pour ces photos.
@OMERDALORS-ps8qlGermany was devasted during the 30 years War. The destruction was so thorough and severe, that it took Germany a long span of time to fully recover.
Das mit den Superlativen ist halt immer so eine Sache. Die Photographie wurde etwa 1830/40 als Daguerrotypie erfunden und praxistauglich gemacht, kurz darauf begannen in ganz Europa Photographen mit ihren Kameras herumzureisen und Land und Leute aufzunehmen. Um 1900 war das Photographieren längst etabliert und als Postkarten und in Büchern erhältlich. Diese Aufnahmen sind zwar alt, aber bestimmt nicht die ältesten. Trotzdem interessant und schön anzusehen.
At 14:42 - this ist in Bamberg (you can see the cathethral in the background), not in Stuttgart. 10:09 - The first omnibus with petrol-engine did not ride in Mannheim, but in the Region of Siegerland, between Siegen, Netphen and Deuz (as you can read on the display of the bus). The so called "Landauer" was built by the Carl Benz Company in Mannheim.
Atemberaubend schön, leider auch traurig, wenn man daran denkt, dass all diese Manschen, die wir hier sehen, vor so langer Zeit unsere Welt verlassen haben. Irgendwie habe ich das leise Gefühl, dass wir ihenn doch einen Hauch von Leben schenken, indem wir sie betrachten.

fANTASTICO RECORRIDO. GRACIAS Lo primero que pense al ver las fotos de Berlin es que seguramente se haya perdido tanta arquitectura señorial, a causa de la guerra. Asi, las ciudades pierden su fisonomia e identidad. Las fotos cobran una importancia muy superior, las unicas que conservan la memoria.
At 8:14, the person standing next to Wilhelm II is Winston Churchill as military attaché. More than once he was the Kaiser’s guest in Germany before the First World War. Here he is smiling in Wilhelm’s company while observing Germany army manoeuvres in Bavaria in 1906.
Which is fascinating as Churchill lived long enough to see jet air travel, humans travel into space, colour television, etc., as well as the Kaisers being swept away. While there is no way to objectively measure it, I often feel people like my grandparents (1870’s/90’s - 1980’s) lived through far more substantial change than people have over the last 50-60 years or so…
The two buildings behind the Kaiser in the photo of the Tempelhofer Feld (9:13 into the video) are still there. They suffered minimal damage during the Battle of Berlin. The Soviets set up their headquarters about a block to the right of the second building. That probably saved them both. I have great memories of Berlin and that neighborhood in particular. I was stationed there in the USAF from 1990-1992. Tempelhof Air Base took up most of the old Tempelhof Central Airport, built on the field behind the Kaiser in this photo. Thank you for these treasures.
Die Nationalfarben des Deutschen Kaiserreiches, aus der die Fotos stammen, waren allerdings nicht Schwarz-Rot-Gold sondern Schwarz-Weiß-Rot. Schwarz-Rot-Gold waren die Farben Deutschlands erst in der Weimarer Republik. Schwarz-Weiß-Rot ist nicht "verboten", sondern historisch korrekt.
Es wurde allerdings erstmals vom Freikorps Lützow, was eine deutsche freiwillige Kampftruppe gegen Napoleon war, verwendet und dann in der Vormärz im Zuge der nationalen und liberalen Strömung wieder als Symbol für Einigkeit, Recht und Freiheit aufgegriffen. Es hat also in der Tat schon bevor diese Bilder gemacht wurden existiert. Wegen des Scheiterns der 48iger Revolution wurde es nach 1849 natürlich nicht mehr so richtig benutzt und später im Kaiserreich (woher all diese Bilder stammen) wurden die Farben der Flagge des Norddeutschen Bundes (schwarz weiß rot) übernommen.
Germany of the 19th century was more than just the present day territory of the Bundesrepublik ! I could not help but notice that for some sinister reason there was not a single photograph at all from such German cities like Breslau, Danzig, Stolp , Königsberg, Stettin, Straßburg and yet at that time they were as much Germany as was Berlin , München, or Düsseldorf was , or is that today verboten to remember ? Only a fool would think that they can actually succeed in erasing history…….How about doing a series on photographs from those forgotten cities and how German they were at that time?
Dear Valdas, those not shown cities would be still german if only the Germans a time ago were clever enough not to make a slaughterhouse of our beautiful Europe.
Britain didn't want a new rival on the European stage, France and the Netherlands had to do. Securing shipping to the revenue-producing colonies was a top priority.
Beautiful photos! Thank you! I especially enjoyed seeing the actual transformation of the first photo and suggest it would be nice to see ALL of them go from 'original' to 'enhanced' to 'colorized'.
Thank you for this history of one side of my family. Have also seen very early pictures of Lsipzig late 1800s, so that was great as that was where ancestors from.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Yeah….suuuuuuureeee Civilized and proper Prince Wilhelm (hiding his arm as usual) was so proper and civilized and hated the Brits so much that he started WW 1.
The photo at 12:18 is not taken in Germany. It shows Henry Ford on his Quadricycle (petrol-powered, not electric), the first car developed and built by himself
Beautiful buildings full of characternd originality, it's so sad to see cities becoming homodenised into copies of each other. One reason I travel is to absorb differences, and it's getting to feel samey/highrise/glass and steel is taking over. 😢😢
W can not make a differnce anymore, if it' s a Railway Station, a Museum, a Bank or a Supermarket... that`s modern architecture... Thank you for your comment... same to me: discovering the differences, the originality of something.
Hier noch eine falsche Bildbezeichnung bei 3:55 Min:: Dies ist nicht der Schillerplatz, sondern der Gendarmenmarkt mit dem kgl. Schauspielhaus und dem Französischen Dom. Auf der entgegengesetzten Seite des Gendarmenmarktes steht noch der Deutsche Dom, der hier jedoch nicht auf dem Foto ist.
I did not see any street / city scenes of former cities that were in Germany, like Danzig or Konigsberg, places that are now in Poland or Russia. Very interesting pictures, thank you.
Das Foto bei 11:43 Min. ist nicht die Alte Nationalgalerie. Dies hier ist der Eingang zur U-Bahn am Zietenplatz. Dahinter befindet sich links das Eckgebäude, welches früher die Direktion der Kur- und Neumärkischen Hauptritterschaft beherbergte. Dieses Gebäude ist heute noch erhalten. Die Alte Nationalgalerie befindet sich dagegen auf der Museumsinsel in Berlin.
At 12:19, that's Henry Ford in his first automotive creation, a single cylinder internal combustion powered "quadricycle". It wasn't electric and the photo was not taken in Germany. I enjoyed the video very much. Thanks for creating it.
7:41 this image shows three Unteroffiziere (equivalent Corporal, the two kneeling in front and the man on the right) and four Schützen (none of those seem to have a Gefreiten-button on the collar) of the Reserve-Infanterie-Regiment 106, a unit of the army of the Kingdom of Saxony. This unit was mobilised on August 2 1914. Given the little bouquets in the button line of many of these soldiers and the oldstyle uniforms, this picture was taken about that date, presumably after a parade in Wurzen, Borna or Glauchau after August 4. The history of the regiment can be accessed on the Website of the Saxon State Library SLUB.
I think the 'Car Racing Start, Berlin 1900' at 5:21 - is actually (eg. see front of cars) the Automobile Club (of Great Britain & Ireland) Thousand Mile Trial, 1900 - and the location of the photo is London, most likely Grosvenor Place SW1, or another street surrounding Buckingham Palace grounds. ☺
16:19 - A shorthaired Vorsteh. I grew up with a dog like that, training him three times a week at a local dog club. My father used him as a hunting dog. Very, very tough breed!!! ❤
9:42 This is a mantainance wagon for the electric overhead lines of the Frankfurt tram lines. It is the "Montagewagen 3" of the "Städtische Straßenbahnen".
ANd the times thery are A-changing. It is impressive the elegance, style and galantry of those epochs. No need to compare to today's shabby- vagabond-like outfits of people in the street.
The picture you label as an electric car in Berlin in 1900 is a famous photography of Henry Ford in his Quadricycle, his first car. The single-cylinder gasoline engine is clearly visible as is the flywheel. The other photos are very evocative though a wider variety of cities would be an improvement.
Thanks, I thought that too - Yep, the cars on a run in Berlin in 1900 are actually on Grosvenor Place London that is the wall to Buckingham Palace Gardens behind them. There are a few more look like London to me too.
Super nice pictures, but I have to correct one thing: Neuschwanstein Castle is not in Upper Bavaria, but in the Bavarian administrative district of Swabia. Strictly speaking, the region is called "Ostallgäu". 😊
Le città della Germania e dell’Austria del periodo fra il 1840 ed il 1910 erano probabilmente fra le più belle del mondo. Sarei disposto a fare il patto di Faust , per tornare giovane in quell’epoca ed in quei posti.
Wonderful pictures!in the One with Kaiser Wilhelm II at Military Maneuvers in 1906 Is possible to see young Winston Churchill as British representative...thank you!
Very interesting, beautiful and partly touching pictures. Only downside: the music does not fit at all. Better: Music from German composers - classical and popular - from that time ...
Don't forget that all these beautiful houses had their toilets in the stair house. and that average employes and workers had to work 12 housr a day on 6 days per week, no holidays...
7:20 Is taken from an website that sells old postcards. It was photographed in Berlin, Leipziger Straße, no in Leipzig. Why do I think I would find more wrong stuff in this video?
Foto metavigliose. Il colore le rende ancora più belle. Però resta un senso d tristezza pensando che quasi tutto è andato perduto per sempre. Non dimentichiamo che indieme alla perdita dei monumenti ci sono state centinaia d migliaia di vittime innocenti E allora mi chiedo: era necessario tutto questo ? Mi sa rispondere mr. Harris ?

The architecture is great. Good for making films for children. Short stories.
3:55 Roman architecture, looks like imperial Rome 2,000 years ago. Simply the best.
beautiful images
Very interesting, beautiful and partly touching pictures.
Only downside: the music does not fit at all.
Better: Music from German composers - classical and popular - from that time ...
Danke SchÖn. GrÜss. Aus Chil,e.
😀👍
SUPERB, THANK YOU VERY MUCH, WERE THESE EXCELLENT PHOTOGRAPHS, EVER PUBLISHED PREVIOUSLY. OR WERE THEY FROM A PRIVATE COLLECTION ?
Impressive! 😮
16:38 When men were real men, and women were real women. That man is excited to see that woman.
Nur die Musik ist leider TOTAL unpassend! Da wäre ja nun auch Musik aus der Zeit angesagt gewesen!
Neuschwanstein Castle isn't upper bavarien. It is from Allgäu, Bavarian Swabians.
Don't forget that all these beautiful houses had their toilets in the stair house. and that average employes and workers had to work 12 housr a day on 6 days per week, no holidays...
Thanks!
😀👍
8:46 Taken from a website of a museum. Are you,putting a watermark on these public domain photos or what is that little orange sign supposed to be?
Sensacional, essas fotos são espetaculares, daria tudo para voltar ao tempo.
beautiful!
Thank you !
Beautiful material
Thank you.
Beautiful photos but... the backgraund music doesn't fit
A beautiful country!
Is it possible to track who the little girl at the end 16:20 was, and her descendants?
7:20 Is taken from an website that sells old postcards. It was photographed in Berlin, Leipziger Straße, no in Leipzig. Why do I think I would find more wrong stuff in this video?
Foto metavigliose.
Il colore le rende ancora più belle.
Però resta un senso d tristezza pensando che quasi tutto è andato perduto per sempre.
Non dimentichiamo che indieme alla perdita dei monumenti ci sono state centinaia d migliaia di vittime innocenti
E allora mi chiedo: era necessario tutto questo ?
Mi sa rispondere mr. Harris ?
