Rare color photos of pre-war Germany

Categories: Europe | History

Long before Germany was destroyed the First and Second world wars, it was a country of peaceful beauty, Gothic splendour and picturesque villages. After the Second world war for many decades, the country was rebuilt, and, unfortunately, the quiet charm of the early XX century was lost forever.

We present you rare pictures that were taken from the new album called "Germany around 1900: a portrait in colour", which will allow you to see the past of the country, leisurely, and a peaceful era, untouched by the pain and destruction of war.
