The ruined centre of Stuttgart from above

Looking down from a great height, the eye follows a broad street with tram lines past blocks of burned-out houses, their walls standing without roofs; between them lie cleared lots and mounds of rubble, a few vehicles and trams move along the road, and in the foreground the skeleton of a large building stands open. The source begins with a general view of Stuttgart from a high building and workers repairing it. Air raids had destroyed much of the centre of Stuttgart, the capital of the new state of Württemberg-Baden in the American zone.
