Bavaria & Palatinate (1574)



This map was made by flemish cartographer Abraham Ortelius but is based on the previous map of Erhart Reich (Erhardo Reych on the map). The map of the Rhine, both south and north of Strasbourg is based on Daniel Specklin's three-sheet map of Alsace. Was published in Antwerp in 1574 along with the neighboring Duchy of Württemberg description.
