Yes. it's sad that so much got destroyed in WW2 in Germany. But: There
ís still so plenty of culture and old architecture. And the amzing thing
is that a lot of German's feel the same as you do and they pursue more
and more for original reconstruction of the historic buildings which provide identity.
There are many examples of current reconstructions: Dresden, Potsdam, Berlin. In Frankfurt a big part of the old town is being erected, again. Come and discover Germany! Today it's architecture is well protected, cared and preserved.
