This is a selection of establishments and disestablishments on May 7, based on OpenHistoricalMap data, that automatically appears on the OpenHistoricalMap page on May 7 of each year.

Contributing

We appreciate your help in curating these events from OpenHistoricalMap data. Items should be based on fully qualified start_date=* and end_date=* tags, plus any other metadata tagged on features in OpenHistoricalMap. To the extent possible, the list should feature a wide range of years and include events from different continents.
