Pictures from the Past - It is amazing the difference in 70 years.
 
 
LEFT CLICK .. HOLD IT AND DRAG YOUR MOUSE GENTLY FROM LEFT TO RIGHT ON THE ORIGINAL PHOTOS AND IT WILL BECOME THE EXACT SAME LOCATION TODAY .... DRAG IT BACK OVER AND YOU ARE IN 1944 AGAIN.

Excellent find.

In Chrome. just left click once to change.  Dragging does nothing.

Interesting expressions on the faces in the last frame.

When you see pics of either war it is a miracle than any of the older buildlngs are left standing. They bombed the crap out of some places. 

As an aside I have a friend in France who has a manor house which was the local Gestapo head quarters in World War two.  She regularly digs up spent bullet casings in the back garden.  Very creepy.
