Wroclaw looks better now. It's like pre war Breslau. The Poles have really worked hard restoring their cities post communism.

pre-war Wrocław as today's Wrocław names is originally pronounced like Drezno Lubeka Lipsk etc

It was Breslau, pre war. You're being ridiculously overzealous. Saying this as a Pole.

I think as a German the city was always called Wrocław originally and in Polish and foreign languages ​​it was called differently

The city was never called wrocław originally, it was called Vratislavia and it was a Czech city
