Travel Video: Wismar Germany a UNESCO World Heritage Site in HD
Wismar a medieval beauty founded in 1229. This Hanseatic city listed as a UNESCO World Heritage site. The city is very beautiful with cobbled streets, Gothic houses, Baroque buildings and Renaissance facades. The classic Town hall, the water tower, the historic drainage system and merchant's houses from the Middle ages are just some of the fascinating buildings town has to offer.
The following description is taken from my YT friend's mbhsug comments. They are valuable part of the description. Wismar is his hometown and I dedicate this video to him:
In this city I grew up. There, I know every house and every stone. You have captured my old city is very beautiful. My heartfelt thanks for it. At
9:07 you are presenting the St. George Church.The church was heavy damaged in the war. The Communists ware the ruins stand and did nothing. At
10:33 you see a gable wall of this church. I think it was 1991, since this wall collapsed on a stormy night on a house. It was as loud as an explosion. (Part 1)
A family died under the rubble. A few days later began the reconstruction. At
15:30 you show the inside of St. George. The roof was missing over many years. As children, we climbed the wooden stairs up inside the pillars. On top on the walls, we played. At
16:19 you can see where we were. We had great views over the city and the harbor. (Part 2)
You should have seen the city in 1989. The Communists did it all let rot and going bad. It looked as if a giant had punched in the face of a beauty. No house had fresh paint and in many homes the roofs had collapsed. Like a phoenix from the ashes, my city has reinvented itself. I am so proud of your beautiful pictures.
