Authors:
You can become an author, too, by uploading your own historical images and by helping make hidden stories visible. Here’s just a few good reasons to do so: transparent urban planning, commitment for the cityscape, monument conservation and a sound historic centre, interest in architecture and urban history as well as realizing educational projects.
