Luxatlas.lu: Der erste historische Stadtatlas Luxemburgs - digital und interaktiv.

Presentation of the Luxatlas.lu website, developed by the VILLUX project. This University of Luxembourg project, co-financed by the City of Luxembourg, provides an interactive digital tool that traces the history of the city of Luxembourg and illustrates the stages of its development over the last 200 years. The historical town atlas is an innovative research tool to gain knowledge about the urban development, its conditions and characteristics and the underlying economic, social and political conditions. It brings together a collection of maps, explanatory texts, and chronological tables and images, which all trace the history of the city and illustrate the stages of its development. The digital and interactive historical atlas makes available research findings from a variety of disciplines such as history and geography and combines relevant information and data from national authorities and cultural institutions. It therefore provides a better understanding of the historical process of change from the 19th to the 20th centuries, including the histories of buildings, streets, neighbourhoods and urban quarters.
