How do I search for an old address?

The map shows a modern city plan with current addresses. To find an address you are interested in, just type it into the search box. By clicking on the address, you’ll open a card showing the buildings’ addresses from different time periods and links to sources that support this information. You can also browse the map freely, clicking on the markers that indicate buildings with information about their old addresses.

Who uploads information to the map?

The map’s co-creators provide data and links to the sources, which the project team checks and verifies. Once the data is verified, the project team uploads the information to the map.
