Description

Collection of texts, images, maps and geo data.

The Office of Urban Planning of the City of Zurich (Amt für Städtebau der Stadt Zürich) has made the highly successful publication “Zurich 1799” freely available. Included are the raw text of the publication, a reduced PDF, map sections and spatial data as well as various images (for which the consent of the data holders could be secured).

Background: In 1799, ten years after the French Revolution, the area of ​​Zurich was the scene of two battles. In the first battle Austrian troops fought against the French, while the second one resulted from the confrontation between the French and the Russians. The publication gives an account of this dramatic historical period from the perspective of the victims, which included the city of Zurich itself. Professionals from different disciplines follow the questions raised by an archaeological find from that period: the skeleton of a soldier in Russian uniform that had fallen in the second battle at Zurich.
