Lorg

Lorg — Heritage & History City Guide History speaks as you walk. Lorg is a location-aware heritage guide that narrates the story of every street, building and monument as you approach. As you move through a heritage city, Lorg monitors your position and begins narrating the moment you approach a site of historical interest. A Roman arch. A medieval abbey. A house where someone remarkable was born. A place where history turned. Each location has a story. Lorg tells it — through your phone speaker or via CarPlay. How it works Walk. Lorg listens to where you are and speaks when you arrive somewhere that matters. No searching. No tapping. The history comes to you. Each location has three layers of content: a brief introduction as you arrive, a full historical narrative when you want to go deeper, and a research archive for those who want to know everything. Read or listen — at every level. The Puret Family Lorg introduces a new way to experience history: through the eyes of people who were actually there. The Puret family is a reconstructed family spanning Roman Saintes to the modern era — river labourers, market sellers, coopers, domestic servants and revolutionaries who lived in the city across twenty centuries. At each historic location, you can read their first-person perspectives: what this place meant to them, what they saw here, what they knew and what they couldn’t have known. Ask them questions. The AI-powered Ask feature lets you speak directly to Martin de Pugo, Jeanne, Marguerite, Pierre or Antoine — each responds in character, in their own voice, drawing on their biography, their era and their relationship to the place you are standing in. A living historical record Each city in Lorg is organised into historical epochs — the chapters of a city’s story from its earliest origins to the present day. Explore the timeline of events that shaped each era. Read the biographies of the remarkable people who lived and worked here. Discover the locations connected to their lives. Every day, Lorg highlights a moment in history that happened on this date — connecting the calendar to the city. Historical map overlays Place historical maps directly over the modern street plan and see how the city has changed across the centuries. Navigate by the streets as they were, while standing in the streets as they are. Notable people Every Lorg city features a gallery of notable people — the individuals who made the city what it is. Historians, rebels, artists, soldiers, mayors, martyrs. Their portraits, biographies and the places connected to their lives are woven into the fabric of the guide. Your own family history Lorg works alongside Heritage Compass, the genealogy app from Siorai Labs. If you have Heritage Compass installed and have loaded a family tree, Lorg will automatically identify locations within the city connected to your own ancestors — bringing your family history to life in the streets where it happened. CarPlay Lorg is fully compatible with CarPlay. Drive through a heritage city and hear the narration through your car’s speakers as you pass each location. No phone in hand. No eyes off the road. History as you drive. Multilingual All content in English, French and German, automatically matching your device language.
