Seek Out Led Zeppelin Landmarks On Google Maps

There's 27 places to see...

Share

Rock dinosaurs Led Zeppelin have well and truly entered the digital age thanks to Google Earth and Google Maps.

By clicking here, fans can seek out the exact pub where Zeppelin used to secretly jam after Earls Court performances, or the house where their defining classic ‘Stairway to Heaven’ was penned.

There’s a total of 27 different landmarks for fans to peruse through, including the location of John Bonham’s grave, Knebworth House, the tower block featured in the artwork of Led Zeppelin IV and the O2 Arena where the band are playing their reunion show next month.

Each location on the map comes with a paragraph of text explaining the relevance of the specific place.

To enjoy the experience better, those that haven’t already need to install Google Earth on their browser.

  • Instead of ’rock dinosaurs’, why not refer to Led Zeppelin by what they still mean to countless millions of fans: The single greatest rock band that has ever existed.
