Historic Map : Meyer Antique Map of Thuringia (The Thuringian States), Germany, 1849, Vintage Wall Art

This is a scarce 1849 map of Sain xony, the States of Thuringia and neighboring countries by Joseph Meyer. It covers the region from Magdeburg south to Bamberg and from Gottingen east as far as Gorlitz. Throughout the map identifies various cities, towns, rivers and an assortment of additional topographical details. Two insets in the lower right quadrant feature the Principality of Lichtenberg and Dresden and vicinity.

This map was issued as plate no. 20 in Meyer's Zeitung Atlas. Although all the maps in this atlas are not individually dated, the title page and maps were often updated while the imprint with the date was not, causing confusion to the exact date for some of the maps. Moreover some maps in the atlas were taped in at a later date as an update to the atlas. We have dated the maps in this collection to the best of our ability.
