About this app
Your architectural field guide.
Acarta is a field guide to architecture, public art, and landscape architecture. Every pin on the map has a year, a style, and a creator. Most come with photographs and the full story behind the facade. The database grows with its users.
Explore the architecture around you
Every building, monument, sculpture, and cultural landscape is indexed by the same fields. Tap a pin and read the record: who designed it, when, where, why it looks the way it does. Find the next one by style, era, or creator. Place names appear in the local language.
Architects, artists, landscape architects
Over 5,700 profiles: architects, public artists, and landscape architects. Years, nationality, the works they made, and the places where you can stand in front of them. Follow a creator the way you'd follow a director.
Log the places you visit
Check in when you're there. Or backdate the trip you took last summer. Add your own photographs and notes. Keep a visit private, share it with friends, or make it public. Missing a place from the map? Add it yourself.
Architecture walks from your maps
Drop places into a map and Acarta draws the route between them. Walk, cycle, or drive. Duration and distance per leg, with one tap to hand it off to Apple Maps or Google Maps.
Maps and folders
Save places and build your own maps, solo or with friends. Track what you want to visit, gather favorites, curate thematic collections.
Share what you see
Follow the people whose taste you trust. Their check-ins and photographs land in your feed. Follow a friend before a trip. Come home with their map of what they loved.
No ads. No algorithm.
Acarta has no advertising. The feed shows what the people you follow have checked in, in order. Location is read only when you tap Check in. Never tracked in the background, never sold.
Explore a theme
Badges for the styles, cities, and architects you explore. A record of what you notice, kept quietly in your profile.
500 cities, and counting
Stockholm leads with 2,600+ entries, followed by Malmö, Gothenburg, London, and Berlin. Suggest a city we're missing.
A living field guide
Acarta isn't a frozen database. Users suggest new places, refine dates, correct attributions, and upload their own photographs. Every change is versioned and credited. The field guide gets better every week because of people who look closely.
Free to use. Acarta Pro unlocks the full record for every place, every photo, unlimited folders, and offline cities.
