Altengrad is a time-progression Cities: Skylines series where I build a Central European city, located until 1989 in the Eastern Bloc, taking inspiration from Germany, Poland, Czechia, Slovakia and Hungary. The series starts around the year 1920 and slowly advances forward in time, which means the city will naturally evolve all the way to modern times. The city is not a recreation of any one real-life city or country, but it takes inspiration from them.
PC specs are in the channel's About page. No, the game doesn't run like this in real time. Cinematics are recorded slow and made faster in editing.

Information about sources:
My primary sources are in Czech and Slovak, because I understand it and I can easily borrow books, search theses, articles or old TV programmes. This gives me information about Czechoslovakia. After learning or confirming something, I search whether or not it's applicable to also East Germany, Poland and Hungary through online articles or videos, but also sometimes English books that I can see through library access. Although some sources pop up from those other countries first. I don't research the Soviet Union and other Eastern Bloc countries, since that is not where the series is from. I also don't focus on political theory but rather the reality.

Tell you what, I love the pronounciation of some cities in Poland, not butchering it like some poeple well done! :)
Having a slavic background certainly helps here.
To be fair I think that out of most European languages Polish has some of the hardest pronunciations. I mean some words are just like “Chodzywieksdgfityrerzy”.
@@antlerbraum2881 Not me actually attempting to pronounce that
It’s so interesting to have following episodes of both series with similar topics
It would be so cool to see that happening again
Amazing work
I need to say, this series gained so much quality over the years! I even like the first "lecture" part a bit more than the building part.
Already excited before I even started watching! I'm a huge fan of this series.
As always historically stimulating and visually pleasing. Excellent work!
I'll never get enough of this build. Altengrad is a true gem. Thank you Akruas!
14:40 those new textures look so good
Beautiful and educational as always!
Who cares about gameplay demand, Altengrad is a planning economy ;-)
Everytime I‘m impressed how well u explain these different topics beside ur builds - gameplay with education 👍🏼
One of the coolest builds so far!
I am SO looking forward for the public transport overview !!
omg your cities are so nice!!
You dropping all those streetlights around the bus station caught me completely off-guard, I remember some talk about night-time being hard to do in Altengrad :D
It's a great detail for daytime, I'm just using nighttime to see if I'm not placing them too close to each other.
Nice
Infotainment at its best - thanks a lot for your work, marvellous as always!
All the best
Valentin
Continues to amaze!!
I always appreciate the amount of research and effort in these videos. Thank you! Keep up the great work!
Loving the series Akruas! Always love the double of an amazing cities skylines series and a wonderful history lesson on a very under-represented part of world history.
I love the way you tell stories and base your ideas on history.
You are a compassionate mayor, city planner, history and geography teacher. I love all about this project. And you put my Cities Skyline projects in shame. 😅
A "fun" fact about the Włocławek dam on Vistula: It's only the first out of 8 dams that were planned for Vistula ("Lower Vistula Cascade"). Włocławek was finished in the 70s but then crises in the late 70s and in the 80s prevented building the further 7. The plan was to have around 1000 MW installed power, instead Vistula got itself reputation of "the last wild river in Europe". Nevertheless I learned there are plans to build a minor installation downriver from Włocławek for hydrological reasons and to secure the existing big dam... which was designed to operate with the entire cascade and when the cascade never showed up it appears there are some serious issues to address.
very interesting and educational series, love it!
I started watching from Aurelia but after binging this has become my favourite series! Love from Australia 🦘
You know what would be cool? To make national park outside of the city. Some rural towns would improve the overall look of the map as well. And making some suburbs (for example terraced houses) would be amazing. For inspiration, you can take a look at Praha 10 Strašnice, here we have terraced houses from 50s and 60s so it would fit perfectly into this decade. Love your project, nice series! M
Absolutely gorgeous work! I love the detail and history that you put into Altengrad! Thank you again!
Bros goated at this game
nice
Those yellow streetlights makes it beautiful at night !
nice!
It's always a treat to see all those industrial buildings with historical narratives as well! 😁
So quintessentially drab (and realistically detailed!) I love how it works! You're so good with P.O. mod.
I live in Bratislava and I see the port every day from the bridge of the D1 Autobahn and it already infuriates me!
I love the work you do! Thank you
as always amazing story telling!
Csepel in Budapest would have been a perfect exemple for this episode but nice work !
very cool ❤
Nice bus station! 😀
Danke!
Thank you!
6:53 I know it wasn't intended to sound like that but it sounded like you were saying that Vistula also starts in Czechia, and i check to be sure that it starts in poland around 6 km from the border
I said it starts to be navigable.
@@Akruas yeah right maybe it was jsut me that when I heard starts to be navigable interpreted that as "like Oder river it starts in Czechia but is navigable in poland" kinda my bad sorry
this episode is NICE
7:48 I can Only imagine what those fish look like.
Gliwice mentioned!!
That's absolutely cool! Love your Altengrad map! I remember: In the 1960s, many television towers were built, such as the Berliner Fernsehturm or the Ostankino tower in Moscow. Do you also give Altengrad a TV-tower as powerful symbol of socialism? Would be pretty cool! ;)
nice buildddddd
Verry nice! Any plan for a tutorial or do you have a sugestion of tutorial for the transfer manager?
bump
50/50🌟🌟🌟⭐⭐, you're good at building and designing!
I have nothing to say, but i will leave it for Your range
Also AMAIZING JOB
You do my favourite youtubevideos!
4:45 minor Hungary burn
I would love if Altengrad had some nuclear power plant
Anyway great job👍
Whoa almost to 70s
69, nice
bussss 🥵🥵🥵
You should take some inspiration from the Yugoslavia
What LUT do u use? Great video as always!
What's the point of the railings in the middle of the islands/platforms?
The narrow curbs are not platforms, just barriers.
@@Akruas Yeah, I realized it by the end of the video, I was too quick to comment. Thanks.
Maybe make the Waterfront into something like Bulwary Wiślane in Warsaw
yes.
again, as all of your CS series, very very good video. I was wondering, why you don´t use any ships for cargo transportation?!
You forget to talk about the Iron Gate I Hydroelectric Power Station between Romania and Serbia, the largest dam on the Danube river and one of the largest hydro power plants in Europe
How is that in Central Europe though?
🌊
Soo goood
Lets gooo
❤
It`s the 60s... WHERE ARE THE AUTOBAHNS?
when will we step into 1970s？
🎉
It's it the last part of C:S: Altengrad - 1960s?
No
Hello! I would like to ask what the name of the map is?
How many episodes an in-game decate lasts?
If I'm not mistaken 1 episode is 1 year, so it is 10 episodes
@@najemnikcia4687 Absolutely not. Each decade has/will have as many episodes as many projects I can think of.
in your city will metro? or this city will not large
For the algorithm
The best soviet town what I ever see.
