I lived in Berlin for 2 years (2001-2003) but so much of the city was levelled (as you can see) and rebuilt that only certain landmark structures remain (rebuilt to pre-WWII state). Am sure you've seen the Third Reich-sponsored video "Berlin 1936 (in color, OV with english subtitles)" here on YT. Thank you for posting this!
Most of the historical buildings were torn down after the war, berlin would be beautiful if it had been rebuildt properly ot if modern architecture had never been invented
As someone has noted, this footage starts at Mühlendamm (you can see the jetties) and Märkisches Üfer (across from the Fischerinsel). It then follows Inselnstrasse roughly southeast to St. Michael's Church (The water next to it is Engelbecken). The footage then appears to repeat the same flight pattern (0:31 but at a lower altitude and slightly to the east) ending at what appears to be the modern Heinrich Heine-Str at 0:53 before continuing to Brandenburg Tor and Unter den Linden.
After nearly three minutes of this extraordinary film the music stops... we're left with just the sound of the film ticking for the last five minutes... the images say it all from then on... no need for music to influence our emotions on seeing the devastation of Berlin below...
1:27 To the left, The Bebelplatz is known as the site of one of the infamous Nazi book burning ceremonies held in the evening of 10 May 1933 in many German university cities.
My father was a Flight Sergeant in the RAF. Ground crew, servicing aircraft. After VE day the RAF had lots of planes and lots of fuel so organised "Cooks Tours" to fly ground crew over Germany. My father was on one and could see most of Berlin was in ruins he said most buildings had just the chimneys standing. He died about six years ago but goes to show this was not all that long ago really. What a waste.
This reminds me of an epitaph written to this war by an American journalist, Ernie Pyle. "try out of the memory of our anguish--and be as tolerant with each other as we can."
Love these Original video's. Would like to snif in those archives myself and post it here, though I'm just an amateur looking online, the subject interest me a lot. I guess there is a lot of material unpublished, not digitalized. Keep on the good work ;)
Thirstypioneer my parents from Holland lived in Berlin and their house was bombed in 1943. I have some pictures from them....they had to run for their lives with a little baby through burning Berlin. They mved to Ronsperg and later back to Holland....
At 6:02 through 6:10, the Potsdamerplatz and Leipzigerplatz as they used to be with the Columbiahaus quite prominent in shot heading over the Potsdamer Bahnhof with fleeting glances of the Deutschlandhaus. Later, the Anhalter Bahnhof on the Askienplatz. One prominent building shown quite gutted is the (currently under re-construction) Berliner Stadtschloss earlier in the film as the plane flies along Unter-den-Linden over the Brandenburger Tor, past the Adlon. The Palace appears as the road veers south east past where today’s ESMT building stands with the Palace’s Portal IV built into it. Nie Wieder...that’s all I can say...
Interesting film...though I think it is probably from later than 1945. This is because of the streets, which are cleared of rubble. The war ended on May 8th and the trees there are still green which indicates this was filmed no later than late August if indeed it was filmed in 1945. It's possible, but I can't picture all those blown and gutted buildings, which shed tons upon uncounted tons of debris in the streets, having had that rubble which ended up in the streets cleaned up that quickly. When I lived in Karlsruhe Germany in 1960 they were still repairing some major buildings and there were some areas of streets in typical block layout where the streets were clear but the entire block was just one big pile of rubble where they'd knocked down the building skeletons for safety reasons. Then again the Germans are very industrious and may have been able to clear all the streets by end of summer 1945.
The citizens were told to immediately remove bricks and debris from all streets at the end of every bombing raid so that emergency vehicles could pass. So, the bombing never closed the streets for more than a few hours. Clean working streets were the number one priority and everyone contributed.
From 0:22 to 0:30 is flying oiver Michaelkirchplatz, following Bethaniendamm that curves after intersecting the Adalbertstraße. The pond these days has a little bar. There is an Aldi nearby :)
I wish the Kaiser Wilhelm II memorial church was rebuilt as it originally looked, instead we got a bland skyscraper that isn't fit to be called a church.
+Sean Furlong Gotta agree with you there. I went by that monstrosity almost every day for a couple years when I lived and worked in Berlin. Hey, did you hear about the new religion in Germany for people with Alzheimer's Disease? The Gedächtniskirche! :-)
The irony to this is the fact that the Allies bombed the crap out of Berlin and other cities, but when the reconstruction started, German industry rebuilt itself and the country with American money. Less so on the Eastern side. 350,000 German civilians were killed in Berlin in the last month of the war. The US Army Airforce lost 80,000 flyers in bombing raids over Germany. Thats a casualty rate of 70%. Its grotesque. My father war in the Pacific War. He was captured in New Britain and tortured. He escaped after 4 months, and returned to Rabual as part of the War Crimes Tribunal because he was a lawyer in civilian life. 70 Japanese were hanged and 350 imprisoned for atrocities. My mother told me he was a different person who came home.
Wow! Jaw dropping footage! After 70 years, do any of these buildings still exist? I remember seeing pictures and artwork on the strikes against the large train station in this film.
Bluenose352 Many bulidings are reconstructed but much of the old Berlin grandeur seems to be lost forever. The bouleveard Unter den Linden is largeley reconstructed. The old Stadtschloss (City Palace) of the prussian kings and german kaisers at 1:38 is under reconstruction, it wil be opened as a museum in 2019. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/City_Palace,_Berlin#Reconstruction
Erste Einstellung: Der Flug beginnt an der Münze, folgt kurz der Inselstraße in Richtung Südosten und überfliegt dann die Michaelkirche. Bei 00:28 ist sie in der oberen Bildmitte sichtbar, links am Rand das Engelbecken, vor der Kirche das Taut-Haus (links der Bildmitte, grünliche Dächer). Zweite Einstellung, (ab 00:31): Beginnend mit dem Berliner Dom, am oberen Bildrand zur Hälfte sichtbar, darunter das Stadtschloss, dann der Spree nach Südosten folgend. Vierte Einstellung (ab 02:03): Borsigwerke, aus Richtung Süden (Borsigturm kurz in der rechten oberen Ecke bei 02:20). Fünfte Einstellung (02:26): Ebenfalls Borsigwerke, aus Richtung Südwesten, bei 02:30 die Brücke Neheimer Straße überquerend, links der Tegeler See, der Borsigdamm führt nach links oben aus dem Bild. Einstellung sechs überquert bei 03:17 dasselbe dunkle Gebäude wie Einstellung sieben bei 03:39, aber keine Ahnung wo das war. Einstellung acht, wieder Borsigwerke, diesmal von Norden, bei 04:11 ganz kurz wieder der Borsigturm in der rechten oberen Ecke. Bei 6:49 wieder Gleisdreieck am rechten Bildrand, dann Landwehrkanal.
0:31 catches a small portion of the Berlin Cathedral (German: Berliner Dom) at the top of the image, going south and passing two bridges along the Spree river and the Mühlendamm that were visible in the footage at the beginning of the video, it travels south, running to the west and somewhat parallel to the first sequence in the video.
Marshal G.Zhukov had encircled Berlin with 20,000 Artillery guns and rocket launchers plus 2,000,000 rounds at his disposal. He wanted to turn Berlin in to dust. I would have to say he did it!
Interesting to compare which buildings are still there and if not, how the area has changed. It would be nice to have a - much - better quality movie and then annotate the video as there would be much more to say to give the viewer a better idea (never done this, don't know, if I would be allowed to do that on someone else's video). It seems to me that the beginning and the end of the clip are the same flight but with camera shots from different angles from the same plane? Anyone?
these are scary images. I'm not sure I understand the true scale of such a conflict, not a single window or door intact. how violently these men fought is beyond me
backstein Gasbehalter, ruins of a large gas tank. The brick walls enclosed a steel or iron tank. Common once in Europe and the northeastern US but now scarce, only one left in US rotting in Concord NH
At the beginning nice view of relatively undestroyed Maerkisches Ufer and Fischerinsel, some of the oldest neighborhoods Berlin, Fischerinsel wiped out after the war. Better close up of Fischerinsel :38 after aerials of Michealkichplatz and the kirchruine
Actually, I'm impressed, it looks like most of the factories are smashed and the civilian houses ignored. for the most part anyway. High altitude bombing is pretty damn imprecise. Or maybe it was that huge buildings with large, flat roofs with lots of surface area were just easier to be hit... by anything. The real question is, where did the US mine and get such huge quantities of raw materials for explosives. I think I read Brazil. There's a town out west that is so toxic and abandoned today, that was mined for the lead that went into the bullets used in WW1. I think those are the real forgotten stories, that should be researched and tracked down... all these phosphorous mines... and whatever other chemicals were used, and the massive exploitation and mining of them and ramp up to do so.
CHOPPERGIRL's AIRWAR I was actually thinking the same, how suburban parts were totally intact and green is flourishing while a road down there's devastation beyond repair.
jimmyhugo33 Go back to your video games Jimmy, and bomb the hell out of the U.S.A...to get rid of your frustrations. Anyfuckingway...unlike most of east Europe which languished for decades in depression. Germany was hardly "destroyed" ,but became top dog again after a mere ten years after all that carnage. Thanks to billions of U.S. dollars ofcouse. Start feeling sorry for all those that were bombed out of their houses during the 1940 'blitzkrieg'... That's not to say you shouldn't have some harsh words for the incompetent corrupt 1918 'victors', who let it come to such a mess for a second time in just 25 years.
The generation living should thank God for what they have...watching that video is like watching syria nowadays...no wonder Germany is No.1 on the list in welcoming refugees from syria cuz they know their pain
I think we are both fucked my boy. I live in germany too. My neighbourhood consists mainly of turkish, pakistani, maybe syrian people. So im pretty fucked. Good bye my friends. /(°_°) |__||
Israel & all nations, like Germany must embrace a melting pot of diverse peoples as it happenes, it will enrichen them, liturally economicly, while holding on to its roots & heritage. In America we have Little Italy, Little Toyko, excetra excetra.
America IS A MELTING POT. Every one came from someplace other than America. But Europe is a Cultural Hegemony and will NEVER be a melting pot. No one entering in any way, is planning on 'melting' or fitting in. It will cause many wars. Mixing of thousand year old cultures is impossible. Whose culture will win? America has no culture there is no way to fit in. Everyone does as they please which is fine but it is devoid of any culture, so much so, that Americans don't even know what culture is or that they don't have any. There are pockets of culture in the USA, such as the Chinese culture or the Amish, do you see them mix or melt together? That is what you expect of Europe. It will not happen. Maybe Israel could open its boarders and let thousands of refugees and asylum seekers into their country and mix with them into a multi-culti society.
Uni soviet di lawan' hancur negaramu' coba langsung menyerang inggris dan bersekutu dengan uni soviet' pasti sejarah akan berpihak ke pada kamu germania' dan sekutumu itali' adalah sekutumu yang paling menyusahkanmu dalam sejarah perang dunia ke 2' mungkin yahudi sudah musnah dari dunia waktu itu' jika lah germania memenangkan perang dengan amerika dan inggris' pada perang dunia ke 2
Adolf Hitler had said, and I quote : "" Give me 10 years and you will not recognize your City". Taking in consideration what Germany did to humanity it got what it deserved And yet today us Jews, like Neil Diamond, go to Berlin to entertain Germans Kosher Shyster & Ass, London, England, 2017
I love America, not for its slums, but for its committment to rid itself of poverty amoung all citizens, which it made up of the great melting pot of the world.
Germany paid for all crimes made!!! God save the allies: the British empire, the USA and the great Soviet Union!! HURRAAAAA. This is Berlin who we wants remember!!!!!
Wow. I never knew how thoroughly the Allies leveled Berlin. It looks like Hiroshima &/or Nagasaki. Virtually every inch scorched.
I lived in Berlin for 2 years (2001-2003) but so much of the city was levelled (as you can see) and rebuilt that only certain landmark structures remain (rebuilt to pre-WWII state). Am sure you've seen the Third Reich-sponsored video "Berlin 1936 (in color, OV with english subtitles)" here on YT. Thank you for posting this!
this is like being in some weird dream you want out of
German cities were so beautiful before they have been destroyed.
yeah Warsaw was also beautiful and guess who destroyed it
It seems odd the tress seem undamaged and so green. Yet everything around is destroyed
The Horror, The Horror...
Love and Peace from Brazil.
Most of the historical buildings were torn down after the war, berlin would be beautiful if it had been rebuildt properly ot if modern architecture had never been invented
the architecture after ww2 resembles the time, ugly

Berlin must have been beautiful pre war.

Even after this, the most powerful nation in Europe once again.
Russia is the most powerful nation in Europe
No. Germany can be the most developed country in Europe, but not the most powerful.
@@quasar4601 Russia militarily yes but german is a biggest economy in Europe.

At 0:29 you can see the ruins of the St. Michael Church and on the left hands side the "Engelbecken" in Kreuzberg.
At 1:28 the roof is painted with camouflaged colors for the war.
Well, Dont start something you cant finish!

Yes, and you still make the best cars in the world too !

Why do these WWII videos seem to attract such nut cases (myself excluded, of course). :-)
Because neo-nazis and other conspiracy theorists love to jerk off to videos that has any connection to the war, Hitler or Nazi Germany.
