Celto-Germanic vs Balto-Slavic vs Celto-Romance vs Indo-Iranic

Kurwa, demolished a very beautiful Orthodox church. What did he bother you with?

Didn't you see the post #37 in this thread? It was built for the Russian soldiers and officials so after the war it lost any function. Also it was occupying place in a very representative part of Warsaw.

I dont know what could be better than russian wooden modern

Tokareva's mansion in Perm





Nosov's mansion in Moscow (american style)



Northern modern good too, in Russia its rather presented

It is still barbaric act.

But I dont bother what are you doing in your country.

Seems good that 11.000 Polish colonists that Austria-Hungary settled in Serb ethnic areas in Bosnia-Herzegovina in period 1878-1918. are moved out in 1945.

Do you mean the huge condo apartments in the suburbs built during communism times?
Yes, they do exist and we try to get rid of them. But that’s not a solely Russian thing, eastern Germany got them as well

Yes, but I saw "new" such buildings, from perhaps 15 years or so.

Its nothing really wrong with those houses (I guess), but it just gives pessimistic, melancholic vibes, kind of like you live in North Pole or Mars

Bolshevics said things like it and even hided hatred against Church by some rationalism. Poles and commies are the same. Even turks didnt destroyed St. Sofia

I know, prior to WW2 architecture of Poland was looking differently. However today it does not. Even some new living complex in smaller places gives you Russian vibes more so than German/Austrian vibe. Anyway, I think the best part of Poland are its people (those that actually live there).

I recommend you a Russian channels that compares cities and villages

Thank you, kind sir. I appreciate the education lessons I get from Poles. First I got history lessons in Bialystok Siberia museum, and now urban and suburban architecture. I think I learned more about Russia from Poles than Russians

Really?

Kraków


Warszawa



Poznań



Gdańsk



Lublin



Wrocław



BTW the palace you called "Russian looking" is French-inspired Magnate residence:

Mostly you show German buildings. I'd say all but Lublin and Warszawa. Even most of what is visible and notable from the Poznan and Kraków pics is German. Not sure how the ethnic composition in Krakau was in 1555 when they started to build the Renaissance Tuchhallen. But the tower from the city hall from the 13th century was from the pure German period of Krakau (in the beginning Poles were not even allowed to become citizens, we've discussed and elaborated it here at TA with Peterski). In 1600 AD the German language was ceased at the Krakau city court which was the heyday of Polonisation, but already before throughout the 16th century the majority of new citizens were Poles. Here's a lot on information on those conditions:

As for Posen there is the "Rechtsbuch der Stadt Posen" that shows that the language of the entity of the city of Posen was German only in 1400 AD (however):

I'm not sure about the conditions when the Renaissance city hall was built, as this happened comparably late in the 16th century. I didn't dig deeper now. Often you find in Polish cities that they were German entities at their foundation and then lasted like that for centuries before they became Polonised. The small town Birnbaum/Miedzychód where I have ancestry from was a fully German entity even in the 17th century as I could see. It doesn't mean there were no Poles around but they were mostly no citizens and had not much to do with the political entity of the city. The administration language at that time was German only and the citizens were overwhelmingly Germans.

The cities of Danzig and Breslau we don't even have to talk about in that context. They were German settled till 1945 so the "Polish architecture" that you see on those pics is simply Germany proper, not different to Berlin or Lübeck.

You must be joking. The church that we're discussing here was built in 1912. Comparing it to Hagia Sofia is a joke.
