The Time Stamp Project
“The Time Stamp” is a project designed to maintain documentation of the urban history of cities and towns.

Students from schools and universities will collect historical data about the town and city buildings from archives, libraries, interviews etc.

A large variety of information will be collected regarding the buildings. This information includes pictures of the buildings as they are today, and as they were, functions of the building then and now, unique architectural or constructional technology, information regarding the inhabitants of the buildings, uses of the building, secret hiding places that might have been in the buildings, important events which took place there, changes in the street names or specific address of the buildings and any other relevant information.

The project’s professional staff will digitize and catalogue this information after validation of its accuracy and make it easily accessible through the project’s website.

In addition it will be possible for residents or occupants of the building to add a ״Personal Stamp" to the building including their own personal involvement with the building.

A visitor will be able to scan the QR code on the front of the building and embark on a virtual time tunnel tour of the building in historical perspective.
