It was called "Victorian", "Belle Epoque", "Nostalgie", "1900", or "Rosa Serie"...

These must have been some of the most difficult and expensive sets for Playmobil to produce when you look at all the fine detail and parts required.  Classic Playmobil in its own right.

Ditto,....Playmofire  :yup:! A true standard to which all future PM doll house themes will be judged! Thanks Karim, for the trip down memory lane!
  Forget about all of the other stuff,....all we need is the reintroduction of the 3526 Fire Engine!

and to think they call this a child's toy . They simply are so simply beautiful . The thing that interested me is after I went into a doll house shop and saw how expensive the house and accessories were (house $500-$2000, Table and chairs $200 and up, etc...)  I realized how affordable Playmobil Victorians can be .
If you hear the sound of the bell which will tell you that Grigori has been killed, if it was your relations who have wrought my death, then no one in the family will remain alive. They will be killed by the Russian people. :prays:

Ah, those were the days! Thank you Karim for this little bit of nostalgia and what might have been.
