This is my hometown. Where I was born and where I still live at 70yrs. This is so familiar for me although a lot of things have changed over the 7 decades. Brings tears to my eyes. Thank you so much for posting this video
There was a hug cap between poor and rich. Poor people were really poor and if you were unlucky to be born in a poor family, there was no way to get a better life. They don't show the houses and neighbourhoods from the poor people. Only rich people could effort leather shoes, poor people had wooden clogs only. Poor people stayed in their neighbourhoods because they didn't had a reason to go to the center because they didn't had money or time to go to the center.
@Habemus Haider First of all, I don't like your tone to me. I am Dutch myself and know exactly what I am talking about and I also have been told about the history of poverty from my own family. It was the time in the Netherlands that " if you were born for a dubbeltje (10 cent coin) you"ll never became a kwartje (25 cent coin) . If you were born poor, you had to work your ass off, making long days for just a little money. Poor families took their children from school as early as allowed to work in factories and on farms just to be able to fill hungry stomachs. Girls were house maids or farm maids and only coming home at sunday to give their salary to their parents. The poor people were often living with one family in one room with no bed for everyone. The rich people had villa's and the rich women didn't do anything else then going to visit eachother and do embroidery. Poor girls from age 13+ were working hard to clean the villa's and to serve them meals and tea. It was like that in the Netherlands still in 1950! My mom was a maid in that time herself. My grandfather made long days in a factory, very hard work. My mother remembered that her father was sometimes so exhausted coming home, that he hardly could lift his feet anymore. Actually I was the first generation who got all the chances to study, based on capability, even though my family was in the past a labour class. Before all the clever poor children didn't had the chance to study at all!
@Habemus Haider As a Dutchie i do not know too much about Dutch history myself, but i know enough to know that what Lien says is true. Also i know that it can be easy to romanticise the past. Even i can feel strangely nostalgic when i see the boys on their cycles riding over the cobblestones.. But damn, i am ever so thankful to live today!
The quality is indeed impressive, but it's important to note that this video is not the original from 1919. The original footage was black and white, and it didn't have sound, as audio recording technology didn't exist at the time. What you see here has been digitally processed using advanced algorithms to add color and improve visual quality. Additionally, the sound you hear was added later through sound design, so it doesn't come from the original footage. It's still a great restoration work, but it should be seen as a modern reconstruction.
Many of those buildings are 100s of years old already in 1919. Today even older, and many still standing. 1919 was only 102 years ago. Amsterdam is the same with buildings from the 1600s and perhaps older. Rotterdam not so much since it was bombed heavily in the war.
They are all long gone... So surreal! Just one moment of eternity. But what an amazing elegant city, it looked clean, rich, simply beautiful. Thank you for this.
Still a beautiful city! Ok sorry I live there and enjoy city walks. Although it is too bad that most of the buildings at the great square near the church were bombed during WW2 and replaced by ugly bank offices and the like.
@@darthputinsmouthpiece1059 No, we weren't. Not even remotely. Yes, other people (volkeren) traded slaves also - including African people. But that doesn't relinquish one single bit from the fact we (Dutch) traded slaves and made a huge profit from slavery for some 250 years. Not to mention slave labour itself, which was common practise on all (Dutch owned) plantations in our (Dutch) colonies in the (Dutch) West-Indies - you know, the Carribean: Suriname, Aruba, Bonaire, Curacao, St. Maarten, St. Eustatius & Saba. It was THE business model for making huge profits for Dutch companies in our (Dutch) part of the Carribean. So no, we didn't just "transport" them. We bought them ourselves, transported them, sold them to anyone who wanted to buy them from us, and exploited them ourselves too, in every possible concievable way. There might have been no slaves in our motherland, back home, in our little windy corner in the North-West of Europe, but there certainly was slavery in our colonies, in our own (Dutch) territories back then, under Dutch law, for some 250 years... and all those businesses were Dutch owned (by "decent", God fearing, Dutch, white, christian, people - in case you're still miscomprehending the issue here, Slim & Rijk). So get your own national history straight and right, so that all the suffering of countless innocent people might not have been in vain. Own your own history, Slimpie.

I am curious too. However, this video was shot during the 1918 influenza pandemic (Spanish flu; February 1918 to April 1920; Wikipedia). I think I have had enough pandemics for now. ;-)
Yeah thanks to the germans. We have changed. Otherwise the city whas stil like that. And now we have the wurst thing in Groningen and that is the Groningen forum
A lot more children on the streets, all very curious. So crowded! So much walking no matter what class they are. Their faces aren’t stern or moody but full of wonder and a little shy
Always when I see paintings, video's like this, black n white video's etc. I realize that the people pictured, saw the same things but in full HD. Like just as clear as we see life. That's unimaginable
Another way to tell it's real: genuine horse poop in the streets (watch the bicyclist at 1:21) steer around the poop pile). Those were the good ol days
Simplemente fabuloso!! El sonido ambiente es increíble, hasta el detalle de las pisadas de los caballos, a tiempo y con el volumen justo. Sos un crack!! 🥰
I can’t imagine how this technology will evolve in the next ten to fifteen years with computers becoming better and better at detecting objects in a video clip, we will probably be able to recreate the entire thing in 3D and change the seasons and turn day to night and so on, maybe even be able to walk around there in VR.
seeing how we are improving rapidly, I have no doubt that in 100 years we will be able to return to these times without leaving our homes, because virtual reality will be very real, where you can feel, see, touch and so on. it will be like a time machine
1919: Hey look a camera, I like it, its a lot of fun 2021: Please point your camera away from me, for I do not wish to be recorded today. Did I do a good interpretation?
This is so impressive that no woman in this street has pants on or wearing half naked and indecent clothing. That generation of women would be horrified at what their grand children are wearing in the streets today. Such culture shock at the degradation that fashion has done to the society they handed down to us.

@@tiwaz4598 Yes let's go back to the time where people of colour were killed for no reason, where women had as many rights as pets, where corruption was normal and where different opinions were met with alienism. How could you not want liberalism you are basically saying you'd rather not be allowed to have different opinions. Also keep in mind this is one of the more developed cities, most people lived like "degenerates" and in "dirtiness"
The amazing thing about Europe footage is, the buildings really haven't changed much, unlike New York & Los Angeles. If you've travelled their, you know what i mean. Europe's culture & history is so amazing because of that reason, you can still visit their today & see so much of that day & age, without time traveling.
I absolutely see your point and I love that too, especially since I was born in this city, or rather, in a small village a couple of miles west of Groningen that has been part of Groningen since the late 60's. Unfortunately though, during the liberation of Groningen in 1945 a lot of the buildings you see here were shot to pieces. War does that 😢. For Rotterdam, also a Dutch city, it was far worse though: that city was deliberately bombed to force us into surrender in the second world war and they had to build literally the whole city all over again. I don't know however, maybe that also adds to the history in it all...

no hipsters with rainbow hair and goth jeans , no arab kids hanging all over the place smoking weed, no mcdonalds and BK bags littering the streets.. seems like better times to me.
thank you! I lived in Groningen for a few years & it was not bombed as much as other cities, so it's incredible to see how it changed very little. amazing!

Great job, NASS! Very effective to make old footage "come alive" for present-day viewers! Just one thing: Your estimation of the speed is generally some 15-20% off. Slow your videos down a bit and they’ll be even more realistic. This one from Groningen looks perfect at the TH-cam 75% speed. Remember that those times were less hectic than ours … One minor thing is that in this video’s description, there’s something I can’t understand: het Groninger museum siert nu; dan meer villa's.

@@l.bakker7563 it actually has everything to do with God. Modesty, prudence and decency are Christian virtues. Less Christians now, less respect for these virtues. "if you would like to live in a world where everybody looks the same I feel sorry for you." What a benign thing to say - completely reductive and without meaning. Isolation and "diversity" have bred weakness and malice, whereas cohesion and unity have bred strength. Now we live in a "diverse" world and look at what we have. Endless material possessions but absolute social misery. The degeneration of a society starts by rejecting God.
@@Wilantonjakov so when faith was the strongest, did people dress the same? No they dressed colourfully and were living their best life exploring nature and the human mind and body. And because of further expression of the human mind through science, the church doubled down on religion and that's when the renaissance happened. Religion is a way to suppress people and you look for answers in the divine but they're not there if you look into it. The answers are in science. And science has told us how rain and thunder happens. But also how the human mind works. And if you believe it or not, the human mind likes invidualism more than collectivism. So you're just plain wrong when you say that cohesion and unity in the FORM OF CLOTHES creates strength. Also when a country divides state from religion they have almost always prospered. Look at the Mongol Empire, one of the first secular states ever. It clearly did well for a long time. Look at the Netherlands, which let go of religion and let Catholics, Protestants, Jews and Muslims in the country in the early 17th century. It then went on to become one of the richest countries on earth. But then countries that have not divided state from religion: Saudi Arabia: one of the highest wealth inequalities Yemen: extreme poverty Afghanistan: islamic terrorism
Wow, wat PRACHTIG! Dat was een jaar voordat mijn vader op Kostverloren geboren werd. Achter de watertoren zijn nog de weilanden te zien waar later West End en Vinkhuizen gebouwd werden, Ik ben al in de jaren 70 naar Oostenrijk verhuisd, maar nu ik dit zie krijg ik toch wel een beetje heimwee en heb erg last van zwetende ogen. Hartelijk dank en groeten uit Klagenfurt.
Het ziet er ook allemaal zo schoon uit..... Jammer dat het wazig is vanaf de Martinitoren, want vroeger toen ik daar als kind stond in de jaren 60 kon je Ameland zien liggen. Ik denk dat dat hedendaags onmogelijk is door de luchtvervuiling?
Ah my city, still love it, though no longer live there. Still a shame that some of those amazing building in the Grote Markt were destroyed during WWII. Nowadays especially on northen side of the Grote Markt they put the most ugly buildings there they could make. Hope they will be destroyed in due time and put there something more fitting, more in line with the rest of the amazing old city centre. If one of you is in the Netherlands, Groningen - though a bit in the middle of nowhere - is well worth a visit. Waaayy better then tourist infested Amsterdam.
A bit ironic you say Amsterdam is tourist infested but you encourage people (tourists?) to go and visit Groningen. Aren't you afraid it will become tourist infested as well?
@@jhnjhn3768 It will never reach Amsterdam levels no matter how much you hype it up. Tourists aren't too bad in my opinion, when the city starts feeling like its owned by them however it sucks

Hi this is really amazing especially the clarity of the city. My parents were Dutch, were born in 1923 and lived in Groningen and Emmen. During the war my Dad was sent to Germany as a slave labourer and my mums parents house was accidentally bombed by British and burnt to the ground. After the war my parents with 4 children emigrated to Australia in 1955 and have lived here ever since. Both Mum and Dad have passed away but all of us have married and there are more children . My Dads surname was Nissink and mums surname was Edens so I imagine a few of them would still live in Groningen. Cheers from Queensland Australia 😎
The sound effects are amazing, it really brings it too life. Some people may argue: those are not the real sounds. Well, but not having ANY sound is not realistic either, isn't it? So it adds so much. Thanks!!
@@bertvdlast Well, the war had just ended and we were demob happy so a few of us pitched up in the Dam, in no hurry to return to a life of industrialized drudgery.

Soon we had an underground dispensary treating ex soldiers suffering from "shell shock" (ptsd as it's now known). The rest, as they say, is history.

Amazing... This is what it's like when there are no cars, no cell phones, no computers and no television. My city looked like this once, I was walking down the street one evening and the power went out. Everyone came out from in front of their TV and came out of their houses and started wandering around LOL. It's interesting they all wore suits and dresses, and hats to keep the rain off their heads. These days you can live in a crowded neighborhood and never meet your neighbor, we go from our car to our living room in front of a TV or computer. And who needs a hat these days LOL. Makes me wonder what it will be like in another 100 years.
Sometimes wonder how to explain facetime and skype and things alike to someone from that age. being able to call someone that is on the other side of the world, with video and sound. crazy.

We moeten herbouwen!
Ik ben timmerman, en ben altijd blij als wij oude panden mogen renoveren. schitterend werk gewoon!
Er wordt bewust modern gebouwt omdat dat goedkoper is en de Europese culturen ondermijnt en zo de weg vrij maakt voor de Europese superstaat.

@@nellushdavtjan5048 bro in 1919? Do you know how bad of a time period that was for literally everyone that wasn't filthy rich?
Watching this as a Groninger want me somehow to go back to 1919
Same!
I am curious too. However, this video was shot during the 1918 influenza pandemic (Spanish flu; February 1918 to April 1920; Wikipedia). I think I have had enough pandemics for now. ;-)
Why did you forget 1919 to like the 50s?
Someone should put a video of todays Groningen. You will realize how we “progressed”.
How do you mean?
Yeah thanks to the germans. We have changed. Otherwise the city whas stil like that. And now we have the wurst thing in Groningen and that is the Groningen forum
Most of the buildings are still standing.
@@wilco8729 It were actually Canadian tanks destroying the buildings

@@blackhorsered mind your own business?
Speciaal voor jou: bemoei je met je eigen zaken.
One way to tell this is the real deal... Half of all the people are staring at the camera with fascination.
Another way to tell it's real: genuine horse poop in the streets (watch the bicyclist at 1:21) steer around the poop pile). Those were the good ol days
It is scary to know that 99% of the people in this video are dead
Das best eng idd!
probably more than 99%
Everyone, no person in this video still lives
100 %%
There are little kids on the streets. Maybe they are around 108 years old by now. So still alive.
Simplemente fabuloso!! El sonido ambiente es increíble, hasta el detalle de las pisadas de los caballos, a tiempo y con el volumen justo. Sos un crack!! 🥰
de cultuur is zo veel veranderd in 100 jaar, echt fascinerend
I can’t imagine how this technology will evolve in the next ten to fifteen years with computers becoming better and better at detecting objects in a video clip, we will probably be able to recreate the entire thing in 3D and change the seasons and turn day to night and so on, maybe even be able to walk around there in VR.
yes!!
Instead of being surprised by this movie you are still watching the future! Great.
@@ralzvy me 2 but it frightens me at the same time
seeing how we are improving rapidly, I have no doubt that in 100 years we will be able to return to these times without leaving our homes, because virtual reality will be very real, where you can feel, see, touch and so on.
it will be like a time machine
There are positives to todays technology but also negatives which i dont like and tbh aint good for humans.

This is so impressive that no woman in this street has pants on or wearing half naked and indecent clothing. That generation of women would be horrified at what their grand children are wearing in the streets today. Such culture shock at the degradation that fashion has done to the society they handed down to us.

Times move on nothing can stay the same forever😇 Also it’s your choice to dress modestly don’t force that opinion on others. You do you boo.

Also keep in mind this is one of the more developed cities, most people lived like "degenerates" and in "dirtiness"
The amazing thing about Europe footage is, the buildings really haven't changed much, unlike New York & Los Angeles. If you've travelled their, you know what i mean.
Europe's culture & history is so amazing because of that reason, you can still visit their today & see so much of that day & age, without time traveling.
America is not even 300 years old yet.
I absolutely see your point and I love that too, especially since I was born in this city, or rather, in a small village a couple of miles west of Groningen that has been part of Groningen since the late 60's. Unfortunately though, during the liberation of Groningen in 1945 a lot of the buildings you see here were shot to pieces. War does that 😢. For Rotterdam, also a Dutch city, it was far worse though: that city was deliberately bombed to force us into surrender in the second world war and they had to build literally the whole city all over again. I don't know however, maybe that also adds to the history in it all...

Great job, NASS! Very effective to make old footage "come alive" for present-day viewers!
Just one thing: Your estimation of the speed is generally some 15-20% off. Slow your videos down a bit and they’ll be even more realistic. This one from Groningen looks perfect at the TH-cam 75% speed. Remember that those times were less hectic than ours …
One minor thing is that in this video’s description, there’s something I can’t understand:
het Groninger museum siert nu; dan meer villa's.
I agree. 75% speed does look more realistic.

"if you would like to live in a world where everybody looks the same I feel sorry for you." What a benign thing to say - completely reductive and without meaning. Isolation and "diversity" have bred weakness and malice, whereas cohesion and unity have bred strength. Now we live in a "diverse" world and look at what we have. Endless material possessions but absolute social misery. The degeneration of a society starts by rejecting God.
@@Wilantonjakov
so when faith was the strongest, did people dress the same? No they dressed colourfully and were living their best life exploring nature and the human mind and body. And because of further expression of the human mind through science, the church doubled down on religion and that's when the renaissance happened. Religion is a way to suppress people and you look for answers in the divine but they're not there if you look into it. The answers are in science. And science has told us how rain and thunder happens. But also how the human mind works. And if you believe it or not, the human mind likes invidualism more than collectivism. So you're just plain wrong when you say that cohesion and unity in the FORM OF CLOTHES creates strength. Also when a country divides state from religion they have almost always prospered. Look at the Mongol Empire, one of the first secular states ever. It clearly did well for a long time. Look at the Netherlands, which let go of religion and let Catholics, Protestants, Jews and Muslims in the country in the early 17th century. It then went on to become one of the richest countries on earth. But then countries that have not divided state from religion:
Saudi Arabia: one of the highest wealth inequalities
Yemen: extreme poverty
Afghanistan: islamic terrorism
yup...dressed appropriately...no sagging the pants, showing your undies...🤣🤣🤣

Ah my city, still love it, though no longer live there. Still a shame that some of those amazing building in the Grote Markt were destroyed during WWII. Nowadays especially on northen side of the Grote Markt they put the most ugly buildings there they could make. Hope they will be destroyed in due time and put there something more fitting, more in line with the rest of the amazing old city centre. If one of you is in the Netherlands, Groningen - though a bit in the middle of nowhere - is well worth a visit. Waaayy better then tourist infested Amsterdam.

Hi this is really amazing especially the clarity of the city. My parents were Dutch, were born in 1923 and lived in Groningen and Emmen. During the war my Dad was sent to Germany as a slave labourer and my mums parents house was accidentally bombed by British and burnt to the ground. After the war my parents with 4 children emigrated to Australia in 1955 and have lived here ever since. Both Mum and Dad have passed away but all of us have married and there are more children . My Dads surname was Nissink and mums surname was Edens so I imagine a few of them would still live in Groningen. Cheers from Queensland Australia 😎
My wifes surname is Edens. Maybe related. Greetings from Groningen!
it was already well built. great architecture
I wonder how big the camera is, people can see a new "machine" rolling from quite a distance. Beautiful.
The sound effects are amazing, it really brings it too life. Some people may argue: those are not the real sounds. Well, but not having ANY sound is not realistic either, isn't it? So it adds so much. Thanks!!
