Learning about the history of Camden right from your fingertips is now possible with the recent launch of Council’s interactive heritage map.

To improve the community’s access to information on heritage items in the Camden LGA, residents and visitors are now able to search and view existing heritage listed properties and locations across the Camden area online.

“Heritage makes up an important part of the character of the Camden area and it is fantastic to give residents access to explore so many items, places, and precincts of heritage significance with the new heritage map,” a Council spokesperson said.

“The map consists of many items, places or precincts including public buildings, private houses, archaeological sites, bridges, roads, churches, schools, parks and gardens, trees, memorials, lookouts, and natural areas.

“This is a great nod to the history of our area and allows the present and future generations to enjoy it.”

The next phase of the project is to include information from this year’s My Camden Stories campaign, which gathered information from residents who were asked to uncover their untold stories behind Camden’s rich and diverse history.

The Heritage Map is an initiative of Council’s Heritage Advisory Committee.
