The Mapped My Photos project has been updated with a new photographic collection from Oradour-sur-Glane, France. The latest addition anchors each photograph to its geographical location, allowing visitors to explore one of Europe’s most significant sites of memory through the interactive map.

Preserved as a memorial since the events of 10 June 1944, Oradour-sur-Glane remains one of the most powerful testimonies to the destruction of civilian life during the Second World War. The new collection documents ruined streets, abandoned objects and traces of everyday life that still define the village today.

By linking every photograph to the place where it was taken, Mapped My Photos offers a different way of experiencing the archive, connecting landscape, memory and photography through location rather than chronology. Each marker on the map becomes an entry point into the visual narrative of the site.

Visitors are also invited to explore the complete photographic essay, Places to Remember: Oradour-sur-Glane, which presents the full series and a broader reflection on the village, its history and its enduring memory.
