About Orbessa

History has a place. Explore it. Travel through the ages on a map and an interactive timeline. Discover illustrated stories, historical figures and references, then explore documented connections between stories in Echoes. Ten developed pilot stories take you from classical Athens to Apollo 11, through Magellan and Elcano, Marco Polo, the Library of Alexandria and the Eiffel Tower. The wider catalogue includes other subjects whose level of detail may vary. Listen to the ten pilot stories in English. Resume your reading or listening and keep your favourites on your device. The interface and ten pilot stories are available in English and French; narration is currently in English. An internet connection is needed to load the catalogue, stories and media. Location access is optional: you can explore every place manually.
