Pretty amazing huh? I visited the cathedral in Cologne and that one is almost 800 years old! Yup that's what I'm talking about!

sir badger! I love the historic old buildings but Germany lost a ton of them in the war didn't they?

Yes sadly, the British began targeting housing complex in the beginning of the war and as a result, blitzkrieg began and after that everything was fair game. Cities like Hannover were over 80% destroyed.

Howdy today sir badger! yes sir, war is hell as you know. I wish we could have peace in the world but I think that's a long way off. I suppose you see old buildings in some areas still with damage from bombings or with bullet holes?

In Holland, there was a bunch with bullet holes saw and then they preserved this bombed out church in Hannover as a memorial for the dead civilians of the city. You can walk through it. I'm, sure there's a bunch.

Yes sir badger I'm sure they wanted to get rid of any signs of war for many years but now it would be a good reminder I think since it was so long ago and most people weren't around then.
