Description The chapter focuses on electronic applications in the presentation of the history of cities on the example of the Internet Encyclopedia of the History of Brno. One of the main motives to result in the creation of this project was an effort to enhance the overall status of knowledge in the field of Brno historic topography by means of complementation of the knowledge from various spheres of the history of the city. Logically, the Internet network has become the only possible base for a technical solution capable of fulfilling this demand. In terms of contents the Encyclopaedia is divided into thematic sections (e.g. important persons, events, streets, objects, buildings etc.). Apart from authorial initials an obvious part of all headings is quoting of sources and literature. The mutual link with the users of the Encyclopedia becomes also a source of new knowledge. A direct e-mail contact to the author is a part of each heading. General incentives, queries or comments may be sent to the contact addresses of the immediate circle of the people in charge of the Encyclopedia.
