Nope, visit ANY old german village that wasn't bombed during ww2.
Most of the old houses still stand and every single one is prettier than what is being build today.
An average pre-WW2 house in a German village may be prettier than an average house from the 1950s, but certainly not than an average house being built today. Your perception is presumably clouded by the touristy "villages", which in fact have been at least locally important towns at some point in the past.
haven't seen much tourists in my village so far...
And how much would that same house cost to build now?
Again, this is survivorship bias at best.
Are you saying medieval Germany was richer than present-day Germany or USA? That's of course not true.
And it's also not clear why you call it a survivorship bias - these villages were probably above-the-median in their days, but it's not some singular building like Pyramids that is not representative of overall building of that era/territory. It was just how the houses were built there and then.
