This set of vintage black and white photographs were from a 1904 European trip of an unknown traveller. These random images allow us to take a peek into the everyday life of Germany more than 100 years ago.

See for yourself.

Theodore Roosevelt once found himself in a bar fight in Mingusville, Montana, now Wibaux, Montana, around the summer of 1884 (Roosevelt never specified the exact date of the incident). That time, he was still relatively unknown in the area.Theodore Roosevelt once found himself in a bar fight in Mingusville, Montana, now Wibaux, Montana, around the summer of 1884 (Roosevelt never specified the exact date of the incident).

A German pioneer of aviation, known as “the flying man” by the name of Otto Lilienthal, was the first person to create well-documented successful gliding flights repeatedly. Beginning 1891, he made over 2,000 flights in gliders he personally designed, inspiration derived from his research on the flight of birds but specifically of the storks.

 For centuries, Aleppo was the Syrian region's largest city and the Ottoman Empire's third-largest, after Constantinople and Cairo. It is also one of the oldest continuously inhabited cities in the world. But the ongoing Syrian Civil War has laid waste to this ancient city. UNESCO World Heritage Sites have been demolished, along with Mosques, markets, roads, parks, and countless buildings.

Since 2014, Olympia, a local restaurant in Aleppo, has been posting heartbreaking before and after photos on Facebook, capturing the unspeakable damage the city and its people have endured.

At the end of autumn 1938, Himmler decided to establish a concentration camp for women in Ravensbrück. This location was chosen by Himmler because it was out-of-the-way yet easy to reach. Ravensbrück was a small village with many forests and lakes, not far from Furstenberg. There was a good road from Furstenberg to Ravensbrück and the rail station of Furstenberg had a direct link to Berlin.

 What makes this small old book extremely special, aside from the fact that it's a 16th century relic, is that it's a marvelous example of sixfold dos-à-dos binding, a type of ancient binding in which six books are conjoined into a single publication. You can also read each book individually with the help of six perfectly placed clasps.

This 16th century book is housed at the National Library of Sweden.

 The Pullman Palace Car Company, founded by George Pullman, manufactured railroad cars in the mid-to-late 19th century through the early decades of the 20th century, during the boom of railroads in the United States. Its workers initially lived in a planned worker community (or “company town”) named Pullman.

 The mining town of Chiatura, Georgia, surrounded by steep cliffs, is criss-crossed by a network of aging Soviet-era aerial tramways that are still in use today.

In the 1950s, planners began work on what locals call the "Kanatnaya Doroga," or "rope road," that still connects almost every corner of the town. Today, while some of the cars have rusted away, 17 of the aging tramways remain in service and localsride them daily.

 The Titanic disappeared in 1912, yet decades had passed before the discovery of its wreckage. After many years of searching, it wasn't until Sept. 1, 1985 that scientists were able to find what they were looking for.
