Abstract
This paper presents a mobile augmented reality application, that was designed with the objective of visitors, to experience the historical center of old Zakynthos, Greece, that was destroyed after an earthquake, and allow the users to re-live the atmosphere and life of the historic place. Special attention is given to the mental model of the landmarks developed by the users after interacting with the application, discussing some of the observed flaws of this model.
