  1. A collection of large views of former two Berlins is at disposal in my Italian-Estonian blog, from which there is a link to here.
    Best wishes!

  2. My grandfather was born in 1912 in the village HEIDENSCHAFT, Julian Alps, at that time Austrian Empire. My mother was born in that same village in 1941, when it was Italian with the name AIDUSSINA. From 1947 that village became Yugoslavian and from 1991 it is Slovenian with the name AJDOVŠČINA.
    Horrors, crimes, mournings and a lot of borders changings had crossed that village through the 20th century, but since 2007 it is possible to go from Austria and from Italy to that village without hurdles, because Slovenia entered the European Union.
    I hope some day all borders histories may become like mine and like in Berlin.

  3. Thank you very much dear friend of Cavriana. Your story is very curious. I hope that some day the borders disappear. If only it were so! Rafa..
