Collaborations
Historical Museum of Lausanne
The iconographic database of the Historical Museum of Lausanne contains nearly 62,500 photographs, paintings and prints. The exploitation of this collection within the framework of the Icono Lausanne project should open new perspectives for the valorization of this heritage.
Archives of the City of Lausanne
The Archives of the City of Lausanne are the guardians of historical administrative documents, including the municipal censuses from 1804 onwards, which constitute one of the main historical demographic sources on which we work. We are also studying the city’s film archives as part of the Cineac project.
Archives Cantonales Vaudoises
The Vaud Cantonal Archives are the custodians of the cadastral series we have geolocated and extracted. We are developing a project on the Cadastre Rénové of 1885-1889, as well as training and awareness-raising initiatives for archive users and the general public.
