Projects

Bigger projects are usually documented with a 'project-blog' in which you can follow the progress and completion of different stages in the restoration process. Downhere a few of them are available (not yet translated) :


Soon: Restoration Maps Sittard-Geleen

In the coming months I will start a blog about an extensive project: the restoration/conservation of 74 heavily damaged topographical maps from the former communities Geleen, Broekstittard, Limbricht, Grevenbicht, Born and Sittard. A huge treasure of historical information will be consultable again in short time!
