Regarding München... I didn't realize they still demolished so many beautiful buildings inside the center, that were almost untouched!
And despite all the efforts to reconstruct, even buildings that faced far more damage. I'll never understand the ideology behind all this I guess. Must have been really strange times.The gallery I'm talking about: http://www.tz-online.de/nachrichten/...a&firstslide=1

Either ignorance, greed or stupidity (or all three).
