Visualizing History

The team has been hard at work this year to release the first version of Vauquois VR in an accessible, online format. Built on Mozilla Hubs, the new online VR exhibit contains more content than our previous exhibit, providing additional context about Vauquois prior to the First World War, more information about the lives of the soldiers there as well as what happened to the civilians who lived in the village, and the recreation of the tunnel section itself.
