EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white aerial picture, dated February 03,1935, captures the grandeur of the Casino de la Jett in Nice. Situated opposite the renowned Casino Ruhl at the beginning of the iconic Promenade des Anglais, this architectural gem was a symbol of opulence and leisure in its heyday. However, its fate took an unfortunate turn during World War II when German forces dismantled it for scrap iron. The decision to destroy this magnificent structure stemmed from strategic concerns as well; it obstructed free fire from German gun-batteries on the Promenade des Anglais. Fearing an invasion on Riviera beaches, they deemed it necessary to remove any potential obstacles. The image offers a glimpse into a bygone era when Nice was synonymous with elegance and sophistication. From above, one can appreciate the city's stunning seaside location and admire how seamlessly urban development blends with natural beauty. As we reflect upon this historical photograph captured by Agence France-Presse (AFP), we are reminded of both the transient nature of human creations and their enduring impact on our collective memory. This illustration serves as a poignant reminder that even structures once considered permanent can succumb to time or be altered by external forces. Let us cherish these glimpses into history that remind us not only of what has been lost but also inspire us to preserve and protect our cultural heritage for future generations.
