Read The Plaque is a public-history website and mapping project that helps people discover plaques around the world. A project of 99% Invisible, it brings together a large, interactive map, nearby plaque discovery, random selections, and a browsable collection of recent entries. Each plaque page presents its text and may include historical context, photographs, credits, and links to further information.
The featured entry about Horton House Historic Site, for example, describes William Horton’s arrival on Jekyll Island, his farm, and his role in the nearby settlement of Frederica. Visitors can explore plaques by location, browse the map, or submit a plaque to contribute to the collection. The site credits contributors and partner organizations, and notes that its content is generally shared under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.
0 International License, unless otherwise stated. Its mapping tools use MapLibre and OpenStreetMap. Read The Plaque offers an accessible way to encounter local history through the commemorative markers found in communities and public places
