Digital Heritage Archive Launches

State Buildings has launched a comprehensive digital heritage archive, making thousands of historical photographs, architectural drawings, and documents about their properties accessible to researchers, students, and history enthusiasts worldwide.

Preserving History Digitally

The archive includes rare images dating back to the 1850s, detailed construction records, personal stories from people who worked in the buildings, and documentation of restoration projects. Advanced search functionality allows users to explore the collection by building, time period, architectural feature, or keyword.

This digital initiative ensures that Western Australia's architectural heritage is preserved for future generations while making it accessible to anyone interested in Perth's history.
