I don't know Warsaw, and Poland neither ... wasn't this city destroyed at 80% during WWII?

Yes it was bombed at the beginning of war and then has been completly (80 to 90%) destroyed in 1944. After the fall of the Warsaw uprising, Hitler order was to make a lake in its place. Lake maybe they didn't make ;) , but a kind of desert definitely.
Here is quite good, short slideshow of the pre-war Warsaw pics, when it was one of the 10 biggest European cities: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ESP6xlrineI&feature=related
And here pics from the 1944/45 (the area where I live today is on the second one):

However, to do not be too pessimist, it is necessary to say, that though it is completly different city today, after the war some of the most important historic places has been quite exactly rebuilt from 0 (since late 40's to the 1960's).
For example the old town, partly visible here on pic from the ~1945 and 1960's:
[Image: 202497-sd (1).jpg] [Image: 202499-stare.jpg]
(And some its streets today: http://www.ziolek.pl/fotografie/warszawy/stare-miasto/index.htm )

Quite long "Royal Route" and its closest area has also reborn - pics of one of its ends - in ~1944 (or just after the war) and 1950's, 60's:

The hole on the top of the 3rd pic is a place of destroyed Royal Castle - it was rebuilt during the 1970's and 80's.
The Royal Route's streets today:

Few other places/buildings has been also reconstructed, but this is of course only a very small part of the "old Warsaw", for example the entire XIX century city center or art noveau buildings has been nearly completly lost and never rebuilt. They has been replaced by modern architecture of different sort and quality.
Pics in the thumbs are from the Skyscrapercity forum.
Sorry it was a bit off topic it seems. :D

The site about the LOT can be translated here: http://translate.google.com/#
As I see it describes mainly the evacuation of LOT planes to the neighbourhood (back then) Romania at the beginning of WWII.
