KYPExplore Launches

Have you ever wondered what makes a place the way it is now? Or wished you could travel back in time and discover how your area has changed over the years?

Working with some 20 content partners – archives, records offices and museums – the HLF and the South Gloucestershire County Council, City-Insights has created a complete set of four touring digital exhibitions exploring the heritage of the West of England.

This exhibition uses our C-I Platform, in combination with the Know Your Place mapping tool, to take the heritage collections of the West of England out of the archives and museums, take them on the road and put them back into the places that inspired and generated them.
