What the Battlefields of WWII Look Like Now | THEN and NOW

What does World War II look like today?
Eighty years after the guns fell silent, the scars of the Second World War still remain — hidden in ordinary streets, quiet fields, and rebuilt cities.
This collection of sixty Then and Now photographs reveals how Europe’s battlefields, towns, and homes have transformed from scenes of destruction into places of peace.

Each image fades between the chaos of the nineteen-forties and the same location in the modern day — where soldiers once fought, civilians endured, and history was forever changed.
No narration. No words. Just the passage of time and the silent stories captured in every photograph.
