"Narva, Estonia. Before WW2 it was the best preserved example of Nordic baroque architecture in Europe. The Soviets bombed it to rubble, bulldozed the remains, forbid Estonians from returning to the city and built commieblocks on the remains of the truly amazing Nordic baroque architecture from Swedish times. If Narva would be intact then Estonia would have several cities with the most preserved Nordic architecture by time periods. Tallinn remained mainly intact and is a Nordic medieval fairy tale where the street networks in the old town are older than anything in the New World."
