Abstract

In the educational program Time Window Weimar the Klassik Stiftung Weimar worked with students to develop an app that locates the age of modernity in the urban space through visible evidence and intangible histories, thus revealing to the public Weimar’s modern-historical legacy. To present these complex topics and issues, the application uses augmented reality, digitally overlaying historical photographs relating to, for example, forms of mobilisation, above the original sites as seen now. As a result, visitors gain access to relevant information by reading texts and listening to audio files. In addition, the app also provides a multi-dimensional visual approach to history.
