I wonder how that cute mini car at the very end was propelled. Were there that small combustion engines in 1902?
Back in the beginning of the XX century everybody believed there will never be another war to come. So much optimism was in the air. Today we expect everything to collapse any day now.
What’s the random US flag doing there at 01:25?
Good video quality for those days.
What was that tiny car at the very end of the video ?
Love these over 100 years ago filmed vids.
Crazy to think that most of the children and young adults in this video will see two world wars in their lifetime.
@0:38 looks like the Feldherrnhalle in Munich
Back then Europe ruled all of the world :/
Little did they know what was to come over the next few decades
Anyone knows which location can be seen at 00:40? Reminds me of Munich.

Video snippet is from [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B-m9A8mY-U0](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B-m9A8mY-U0) [0:30-2:15] if you want to watch more.
Always so strange to see that people did not have many clothes but they would always dress formally
My first impression is “no one wears a mask!”.
12 years before disaster war 1
I miss the old day.
If you look closely in the background, you will see Hitler’s dad punishing him severely
It feels much more complicated than what Berlin is now.
I’m sure we are looking a few nazis in this video.
Just imagine if Berlin rebuilt all its pre-WWII architecture. Will the city feel very different today?
So are Hamburg, Hanover, Braunschweig, Frankfurt, Dresden, Cologne, Munich, Nuremburg,…
Have seen this one before or clips of it. Still can only sigh at things like this, it is the closest thing to time travel we can get probably.

Green, yellow and orange umbrellas? Is this accurate?
Related question: when one colourises old film or photos, how do they know what colours to use?
This video makes me weirdly nostalgic for an alternate timeline in which the world wars never happened.
