A year ago, DeviantArt user Mister-Brick (Pierre) came across these incredible World War II photos online. They were taken 70 years ago in his city of Dijon, France.

The 19-year-old Mister-Brick wonder what the places in the photos look like today, which led to his idea of visiting the spots where the photos were taken and re-shooting them at the same angle. The results are compelling. Check out the photos and see what these places look now... 70 years after the Second World War.

“The city of Dijon was invaded on June 17th, 1940. These are the German soldiers gathering in front of the Palace of the Dukes of Burgundy, a 14th–18th-century building.”
