Municipality map prints
Find your street on a 1920s Melbourne municipality map
From Prahran’s bustling Greville Street to Hawthorn’s tree lined streets, each map captures your suburb in extraordinary detail. Every street named, the tram lines and the railway, the parks and the reserves, and the period advertisements crowding the border.
These aren’t decorative prints, they’re discovery experiences. You’ll spend time tracing familiar roads, finding where your home would be, spotting what’s changed and what remains.
Find my street
Your town, your street, your home. Tell us the street and we’ll find the historical map that shows it.
