great reaction bro,litteraly visited dresden less than two weeks back now,such beauty makes me sad because there was even more of that before the war. you should check out some 1910-1920's footage of dresden,nowadays colorized very professionaly.
The black stone is not actually burnt, that's an old and often repeated myth. I guess it sounds cooler to tourists. ;) Saxon sandstone has a lot of iron it. When the stone is freshly cut it is first bright and yellow-golden, but then under the weather and over decades the iron oxidizes and it turns the stone black. So all the black stones you see are indeed old, original stones, but they are not burnt. A fact many also don't know: You cannot reuse actually burnt sandstone anymore, because it becomes brittle and unstable, which is very dangerous to use in buildings. So actually burnt stones have long been replaced.
our sandstone goes black all natural and ofc also due to pollution, most of the black is in fact not burnmarks but just the aging of these stones and most of those buildings already were dark grey/black before the war especially with all the wood and coal burning for heating and industry back then. Ofc the bomb fires added to that, but sandstone buildings eslewhere which werent burned pretty much look the same after some time. Just look at the black sandstone rock fomations in the national park Sächsische Schweiz/ Böhmische Schweiz, this is just how that kind of stone ages.
Sorry, but I just have to correct the guy in the video at 4:43! This is a typical Thuringian- style Bratwurst. Just Thuringian- style, because you're only allowed to call it "Original Thüringer Rostbratwurst" when all its ingredients and the wurst itself are completely produced in Thuringia. In Bavaria, you eat Weißwurst (white sausage) or Nürnberger Bratwürste (which are tiny, like British breakfast sausages).
I also noticed that when he said that this type of bratwurst is common in Bavaria, that was a total mistake. As a Thuringian, I really felt like I was being made fun of by that sentence.
