Mystery Tours - Travels on the Knowledge Web



What connects
these people?
The modern world was shaped because of the way people and things in the past were connected.

The Knowledge Web provides an opportunity for users of all kinds and ages and interests to learn about how interactivity works.

Experience history the way the players at the time did: Like a Mystery Tour full of surprise twists and turns, accidents and chance discoveries, which connect over time in unexpected ways.
