A World Origin Site is somewhere completely unique. It marks the place, people and moment when something truly ground-breaking was invented, discovered or first used.

This includes where and when some of our most famous brands, familiar products and global companies originated.

Only one place on the planet can ever lay claim to these landmark moments in the development of our modern world.

World Origin Site .Org  has been created to record, recognise and celebrate these sites whether they are marked by a monument, museum or are just a humble house, shed or street corner. Every World Origin Site matters.
