Many places in Germany still have bullet holes. Not because they couldn't fix it, but as a reminder. The Parliament building even has them behind glass.

Couple examples: https://www.berlin.de/kultur-und-tickets/fotos/stadtleben/6162891-1852685.gallery.html?page=1

Also fun fact: Berlin has a couple of hills. These weren't there before the war. They are made from the rubble of what used to be Berlin. One of them used to be a flak tower and at the top a part of that tower is still exposed. If you dig down a bit in pretty much any hill, you find bricks after a couple centimeters. https://de.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gro%C3%9Fer_Bunkerberg
