A Look at our Lost Cities.

A few Photos of European cities, before they were destroyed by war and disfigured by modernist zealots.















Paris, still much the same I think!
















Luxembourg
















Louvain
















Lisbon, still much the same, although some buildings have been replaced by concrete lumps.






















Bellagio
















Innsbruck
















Granada, still much the same, but last time I was here, it was full of African immigrants trying to push DVDs on to me.






















House backed onto cathedral in Rouen.














Segovia
















Sienna, still thankfully a beautiful place, It looked exactly like it does here when I went there a few years ago.
















Trier













Turin














Ypres, poor old place. It's probably a big lump of concrete now!














Vienna
















Warsaw, unfortunately, this city was raised to the ground in the Second World War. All this is gone!






















Utrecht
















Nuremberg, such a beautiful place!























Florence, another perfect place, thankfully little touched by modernity.






















Frankfurt am Main, another city ravaged by war.
















Brugges















Bordeaux















Algiers
















Berlin, another great and beautiful city reduced to rubble in the Second World War.
