"Westphalia's medieval heart" - this refers to the Westphalian town of Soest. The "film treasure" from 1952 shows exciting shots of its historical center and the medieval architecture that gives it this unofficial name. But traditions, city festivals and the surrounding area of the city are also taken into account with impressive shots. The film was commissioned by the city administration as a cultural film, but also has clear characteristics of an advertising film. In the "Film Treasures" series, we publish selected documentaries, short and amateur films from past decades in full length on YouTube. A characteristic of the film selection is that the "film treasures" focus on topics from Westphalia, look at them from the time they were created and convey a certain period color.
