Laser-driven sources of extreme-UV radiation based on high-harmonic generation (HHG) provide unique access to femtosecond-to-attosecond pulses, and thus, become an indispencible tool for ultrafast dynamics studies. However, the combination of these temporal properties with real-space imaging [1] remained challenging. Here, we report on the first demonstration of nanoscale imaging of ultrafast dynamics using HHG source. Using a synergy of holography and coherent diffractive imaging we quantitatively map the magnetization state of worm-like domains as they undergo femtosecond demagnetization. This versatile element-specific dynamical microscope allows for comprehensive studies of ultrafast magnetism [2] in space and time, compatible with a wide-range in-situ control, e.g., with external magnetic and electric fields, currents, light and temperature.
