Historical Weimar on Google Maps


Zeitsprung uses historical photographs from the Weimar city archives to allow users to see how the German city has changed over time.

The site uses a jQuery slider control that allows the user to compare a historical photo with a photograph of the same view today. The photos can be browsed by location with the help of a Google Map. Alternatively it is possible to organise the photos by date or by title.

    Beautiful swipe concept on this site, very impressive - it really makes it easy to compare!

    There is no comparison though, buildings were always made better in the past!
