my soul. the bass is a symbol of paris. i'm in love with harris, that he rebuilding the church after the inferno is a major challenge. we will show you how much work goes into repairing. just for windows. this is not, not a damn, it's cologne cathedral. many people here also see this as the heart of their city. the idea that the cathedral might burn down is unthinkable alfie. oh, how terrible. what else could she say of adding that be very, very tragic. i think it has been as a terrible thing. i can imagine, but what does cologne have to do with not true down in cologne, cathedrals glass workshop, katrin, which, that, and her team are restoring the 4 windows from paris. their regular job is to maintain the many windows in the clone cathedral. some of them are over 700 years old here, highly clean restore stick pieces together. we do simply everything. we need to

preserve the structure for the future. not to dam needs, preserving as well. so the clone cathedral workshop offered its help in the restoration work with an enormous logistical effort. the 4 windows were shipped from paris. first, the team had to clean them. the fire had coated them with toxic lead dust, the worst destruction the flames brought was on the lead roof and its wood beamed. truss the voting was damaged as well. so the windows had to be removed over 830000000 euros in donations. have come in for the reconstruction. the cathedrals slated to reopen in late 2024. that deadline is looming as a softly intense of the specific restoration processes requires the windows and all that difficult. so we're fairly relax. what's pushing us is the great time pressure imposed by paris again,

but that's not usual here in the cathedral. but of course we're under that same pressure. how the team has 700000 euros and 13 months to devote to the repair work . it may sound like a lot, but it has to suffice for an impressive 100 square meters of stained glass in need of attention. the repair work is documented down to the smallest detail, the windows must be restored to their original condition as that there's not as much damage as he might think after it is asked to like that. a fear pains and cracks can be cemented together again. all we can repair them in some other way, and there are just a few smaller pieces will replace. so we have to find the right pan of glass painted using the historical methods and refitted into the entire section. stylistically the 4 windows are relatively martin and abstract. they were created a 1965 by the french glass painter. jack la chevalier. some of his techniques present the team with unexpected challenges. bunch of analysis ever yet,

also true with his thumb, and it's not easy to imitate elements. one of us will probably be immortalized with a thumbprint at an end up liking, even with him thing optimal. this isn't the 1st restoration undertaken on these windows, but some of the previous efforts don't seem to have been quite as conscientious on the sabbath. this isn't even glance out. it's plastic plexiglas. we've never actually had that before. as i'm a tougher, he thought when you go restorer, read cache nipper replaces the fake glass with real glass in the appropriate colors . and the many pieces of lead that hold the glass together have to be repaired or replaced. glass into a low de schneider is here from france. she takes care of those with her song. i think it's incredible and very inspiring to be working on the restoration of not her dom here in cologne cathedral. and i guess it's something

extraordinary and unusual that only comes along once in a lifetime. the windows aren't you to head back to paris. the installation brings the reopening of the restored not to damn one step closer. black forest cake is perhaps germany's most well known sweet treat. but anyone who has been to a german baker, he knows there's a lot more on offer coffee and cake in the afternoon as a german institution. and we take a look at just how important it is. did you know that germany's afternoon coffee and kate tradition actually precedes the british afternoon tea boss? japanese may be more known for it, beer or bread. cake is actually a pretty big deal here. so what else do you need to know about cake here? grab a fork. let's david cake in germany comes with his own rituals, namely, kathy includes wooden coffee and cake, usually enjoyed in the afternoon around $330.00,

especially with friends and family on sundays. a trip to my german grandparents isn't complete without this ritual. now is a good time to examine the german classics at the end of our forks. this one is world famous, black forest gases or spots their deck. yes, water, quite am i philip. literally it say miss warren. copious layers of green chocolate on. of course, jerry clear exactly where this cake originates from. i said i would suggest germany's black forest, but there are lots of myths and legends of the writing its origin. other cakes are also named dr. german times in regions besides the black forest, ghetto, there's the loose bag as pancake and the frankfurt prime cake. ah, my pancake is in lieu back specialty while the appointments frankfurt crime cake is one of the german financial capitals. tastiest treats other german classic cakes

are the beast and cake, layered fries and cake. with short crust crumbled cake, probably feed cake, and the app. okay. a few cakes are popular well beyond the borders, germany and some of their back stories have roots and water, ny neighboring countries. ah, regardless of where in germany it's from though you can get your case from almost any bakery or from specialized shops like but history, car confectionary. specialize in cakes, a time. never as good as almost secret recipe though. my almost one cake, it's unbeatable. of course you can rely on the germans system specific cake related vocab. the most important one is the difference between coconut and talk. it's confusing but kicked the actually mean cake in german tartar or tart as a cake made with cream like this one. where couldn't cake because usually more

related to dryer doors, sometimes with fruit. then the coffee clutch, i love literally means exchanging gossip over coffee and cake. and finally callo v and bama quite literally calorie. self explanatory. basically, cake made with cream and sugar. the classic german cakes are traditionally made with lots of sugar butter and cream, paste. amazing, but not exactly super good. that's why there are more and more meagan and healthy cafe. it's like this one offers exclusively v g and k demand for reagan products has been rising noticeably for years. in germany. pastry chef steady. it's herself beacon and her fet, about reinventing in classics for her cafe, dispensing entirely with animal products sap on my swan. sometimes i get patrons who st. basha has to be in a sandwich or korean that i in the latin is none of this is genuine. but right from

the stars it's been important to me to make it vague and be awkward for me. legal and organic go together, sustainability is available. i don't work with any attitudes either. i don't use anything like that because i respond. abernathy, either the best answer is the smiles on people's faces when they find they can use everything here. many are allergic to eggs. the overjoyed when they stand in front of the display case and see so many options, i get many people who say the crumble, kate taste just like grandmas. that's the best one the i guess as best the compliment. blue german cake has always had a special place in the high because of my german grandmother. and now i understand why her case are so good. it's part of jamming college air. i personal favorite will always be pancake. any one who has seen pictures of venice, italy will easily recognize the iconic st. marks square for the famous re alto bridge, usually without a person in sight. but is that the case in real life? we went to venice for a reality check. some mog square

re alto bridge. welcome to venice, colorful architecture and oni, a few people around the italian lagoon city looks fantastic on instagram. but how is it in reality time to find out a heads up and then is, is always full of visitors. it's unlikely you'll ever have anything in tiny to yourself, even so venice offers lots of pomp and splendor. venice was once a great maritime power and it shows saint mark square is one of the most famous squares in the world. and our popular photo motif batch. you'll be sharing it with many others busily snapping pictures. not even this construction site can tarnish the squares. great beauty,

but you'll need to be patient if you want to visit any of the buildings. long lines in front of the dose is palace and st. mark's per silica on common. how about another must see sight on some mark square light. cafe florian, for example. it's over 300 years old. ever to expect lots of visitors here too. though with a little lock you might find a sate. ha verdict. cafe florian is worth a visit, although it's not cheap. a cappuccino costs? 15 euros. but it's right on some mark square which you shouldn't miss during a visit to venice. just expect a crowns. let's face it. the 2nd venice, hans bought the equally famous and much photographed re alto bridge. from a fall, the bridge looks large and it doesn't seem crowded. but when you're on the bridge,

it gets very busy. why do people put themselves through this? we actually got here by accident. so it's my fault. i'm kidding, i'm get a. you have to see it. it's like an iconic iconic place to be. oh wow, it's stallion. gorgeous. for me. wow. the beautiful mid received it. feel okay. knows in the sun, say it's and raise the beautiful plays, begun company, anything about this thing. so we legally allowed to stay here for a while and under the sunset. i'll verdict though the bridge is crowded, the view of the grand canal is worth it. especially when the sun sets in the west. ah, anne, speaking of water, our last hotspot is bertino island,

reachable by water bass across the lagoon. it takes 40 minutes to reach the small island. morano became famous on instagram, mainly because of its colorful fishermen's cottages. our 1st impression is that yes, each of the small fishermen's houses has really been painted in a different color. but around lunchtime it gets really crowded. the elevated narrow bridges are particularly suitable for getting a good view of the cottages. here too, it's worth taking a look behind the scenes because many fishermen still live in verona to this day. we've still got to find out just why all these houses are so colorful. i feel a big go to shuttle do any good. i'll tell you, there are 2 explanations that he say one of the houses are so colorful because it's

often foggy here with god, it's only 40 with. so the fisherman who used to travel for 3 or 4 days on end, that painted their houses to tell them apart, i will begin to like out in colorado that don't other than the but there's also another hypothesis that my grandfather believe up can on a good he he thought the fisherman painted their houses because they weren't drunk go to do be odd, keep with gather, even if the fish harley had hardly anything to eat on the bo gentlemen, they always had wine with them with a green gracelle ethical. i don't know which explanation is riley. she will had since i was a candy. i've been told it was either the fog i was or the wine would be or that may be up or would be and all that we have it. whichever i explanation is true, the colorful cottages of bravo. i'll definitely eye catching. i'll verdict. baronet is great. the re alto bridge and some mark square are usually very

full, but you'll want to visit them anyway. to meet the people making your reads heartbeat. can't follow up on in graham experience, lifestyle tradition dining and the art along with the local people for you will get up close and personal join us become a part of our community. and d, w underscore, your am at 65 years old with no signs of aging. leah told me i'm in brussels, was built for the cities world fair. in 1958, originally facing demolition. the building survived to become one of belgium's most recognizable landmarks. this is bedroom,

young belgium's most famous landmark. but did you know it's not actually in the shape of an atom i am here today to find out what it is and what's actually inside it's 9 volts. follow me to find out about the secret of a child. the italian consists of 9 spears. each one weighs 250 tons. wow. look at how pure terrific, this looks. this is quite impressive for a building that is 65 years old. to learn more about the secret of the home you, i me to agree bri from belgium. he's been a guide here for 15 years there. when you see this year thing, this isn't after out. they told you that this is not him while you're close to it. because it's a crystal with atoms in it. so, and it was a thought by mr. walter again, who was the president of the middle industry in belgium. the iron crystal enlarged,

165000000 times, was designed by architect andre. and john pollock, for the 1958 world's fair, to give a positive image to the peaceful use of atomic energy. the road exhibition was fixed during 6 months, and also they had told me, had to be broken down after 6 months. like all the other presidents that were here to make a place for other activities. so, but because it was really something special and it was so successful during the welfare that up and also water came off. he was lobbying and asked if he could not say maybe 6 months later, and then they agreed and added more 6 months. and finally it said, it's no wonder they didn't have the heart to tear down the home. you also look spectacular from the inside. it continued to break records even after it was built back then this 35 meter escalator was one of the fastest in europe to day. you can

take an extra ordinary ride on it from sphere to sphere. ah. okay, that is nice and live there. he can rest in yeah, you can just take a little bit meditation share. my break me . fortunately that's off an elevator for the 92 meters up to the top. here i learned the secret about how they told me i'm always look so good to me. i'm is always so shiny. what is the secret behind that? well, that's the secret of that you see here, the people hanging on the 3 is to clean them and they do it once a year. although officer innovation, the touch can,

is made of knocks. it still needs to be clean once a year, and then they ask a group of outbursts to do it. then they are hanging on the seas and cleaning them . the italian was renovated in 2006. what is the best kept secret of this building? well, something really amazing and also for myself is that by the innovation of it changed the outside skin from a menu to intox or stainless steel. so the armenian place were 2 centimeters, a thick, but this aluminum didn't weight anything. so they had to keep it, the stainless steel as soon as possible. so they now or only $1.00 millimeters with even then you had told me to $200.00 more weight. can you imagine, sir, you're basically telling me that they're telling me, i'm just got fat out whether yes correct. you can't enter every sphere,

but you can still see a lot from exhibitions to a light show and even a restaurant. but the best, of course, are the incredible news news. and finally, we are off to the french town of leon, which was considered the center of self production in europe until the 19th century . nowadays, there are only a few silk weaving mills left in the city. we visited one of the remaining manufacturers not long now and these silken off caterpillars will go into production because their cocoons are the basis for the queen of fabrics, silk, seniority, nolly or not, or runs a small mulberry caterpillar farm and his blue cheek and leo. and southeast and france gold, cocoa coin trin bowbin. do feel in order to wind the cocoon onto

between the 16th and 19th century leo was known worldwide as the silk metropolis. more than 30000 silk leaders or canoe worked in the city. traces of this period can still be seen today in the club house district, because of miserable working conditions. there were major uprisings in 18311834 that he went to the canoe. huh. the silk libra. protests began because society was divided into 2 social classes, liberty list, the factory owners who gave the orders gemalto and the silk weaver also who made the cloth. however, the factory owners never remunerated the real value of the word develop new to the silk weavers, could no longer support themselves from their work. we bus and when you are hungry, will you protest it be also haywood. at the end of the 19th century leone lost its place in the world of silk manufacturing. to day, there are only 2 silk leaving those here. they mainly produce fabrics for aught

could, to all reproduce from old patterns. sebastian welsh works for the play, the company which was founded back in 1752. he is proud of the traditional croft, even though today the fabric is largely was and mechanically, leaseholders the tissue consist of people want their fabrics to be finished much faster and they'll go over, it's expensive. and so now we just do high end product luxury goods that reduce and that allows the tradition to continue in your course. it involves artisan will know how that is very rare to day she been noise cow. oh, in the archives of the family business, there are old older books with fabric samples and design templates that are more than 250 years old, or medically all f. well, the names of the customers from the guilty damage in the usa ah inmates archives upon us as the who'll say the original waters from the county opera in paris,
