    It was almost completely destroyed during WW2. Needed to go through an extensive rebuild post-WW2.

    Darn right shame

    To be fair, I’m sure it was rarely that clean.

    It ie a complete pity. However, one must remember that Germany had a need to rebuild after the war: citizens, infrastructure etc.

    Historical sensibilities did not factor into it.

    Got any pics of the Trinken Hauptbahnhof instead?

    Even worse: Essen city hall. It survived WWII. Still, it was demolished.

    The McDonalds takes the Schmerz to the next level

    The McDonald’s really makes this so much worse
