  1. Thanks for sharing. Might want to x-post to r/oldphotosinreallife

  2. That kid or mannequin in the bottom right looks bit terrifying

    I wonder if any family business has survived?

  3. Przechodzę obok tej żabki czasem wracając ze szkoły na przystanek. Fajnie wiedzieć że ktoś z tej okolicy jest aktywny

  4. So beautiful! It looks like a fancier version of a British high street! I’m heading to Poland!

  5. They could renovate the facades a bit.

    Also I’m surprised the town already had electricity (I guess that pole on the roof of the building in the background is an electric pole) back in 1910.

  6. I’ll be a little asshole here, but I would like to point out that this old photo was better in terms of visual composition. Other than that, cool idea to shoot it.

  7. At least it still exists, unlike some other towns. Even though Ostrzeszow looks a little run down. A lot of this is old Prussian architecture.
