Weka, Witt & Winkelmann - Weiden in der Wirtschaftswunderzeit

After the horrors of World War II and the hardships of the post-war period, the 1950s were a time of recovery in Weiden - in every respect. People could shop again, celebrate, living conditions improved, the shortage of school space was alleviated, and the face of the city changed. Many refugees and displaced persons found their place in the urban community and significantly contributed to the positive development. This book showcases the city's development through numerous images, highlighting how its area noticeably expanded due to new residential construction. Technological innovations took hold, traffic increased, new road layouts emerged, and leisure activities became more numerous and diverse. In short: things were looking up in "da Wei’n.".
