I visited 2 Roman baths in Köln in the late 1980s that no one even knew about until the Allied bombs exposed them in 1945.

“...unknown ntil the Allied bombs exposed them in 1945.”

In 1961, I visited the cathedral. Its spires are visible from far away. Noted back then, large missing chunks from WWII battle were obvious from street level.
