coronarchiv

coronarchiv is a joint public history project of the Universities of Hamburg, Bochum and Gießen in cooperation with the Medical History Museum Hamburg and the Museum for Hamburg History.

In principle, this can be anything that is available digitally or can be digitized: from texts such as diaries, letters, e-mails, poems, articles in newspapers and magazines, shopping lists, job reports, notices, warnings, regulations on photos, drawings, pictures, Videos, notices, chats and social media posts up to voice messages, songs and readings.
