Roadmap
The map
of whispers.
Click a region on the world map: the window becomes the map of that area, with its rivers, its relief, its railways and its main roads, and every city tells itself as you hover. Europe holds our scouting; the Emerald Coast, Provence, the South-West and Alsace open with one more click. One city is live, four are being walked in testing, nineteen are written and under study, twenty-five are being scouted.

Nineteen cities Under study
From Prague to Mont-Saint-Michel: the places are written and located, the voice and the field walk are missing.
Twenty-five cities Being scouted
From Strasbourg to Edinburgh: nothing written yet, we are checking they have enough to whisper. Both lists are just below.
Under study
Nineteen cities
already written.
For these, the authoring is done: the places are chosen, located to the metre and written up, every fact cross-checked against two or three sources. What is missing is the voice, the images and the walk on site. Three hundred and forty-three places in all. City by city →
Being scouted
The future
whispers.
Twenty-five cities are being scouted, from Scotland to Andalusia. Nothing is written for them yet: we walk them, we listen, we check that each one has enough stories to whisper. They will join the study list in the order they convince us.
And between two cities?
We keep getting
better.
A Murmures city is never “finished”: it keeps growing after it opens, with nothing for you to do.
Cities that keep growing
New places, new stories and new detours regularly join the cities already open. Coming back always means discovering something.
New languages
French first, then English and Spanish, then other languages, city by city, so that everyone hears the stories in their own.
We keep listening
Every piece of visitor feedback is read and weighed. Your questions, your detours and your silences shape what comes next: write to us, we answer.
While you wait,
Saint-Malo is talking.
The Escapade for two, the Odyssée for the family, and four centuries of stories.
