Dutch City maps from Blaeu's Toonneel der Steden
T
hese maps are scanned from a facsimile publication of the Blaeu's Toonneel der Steden from 1652.
The order in which we present the maps is not the original order and some of
the maps have not yet been scanned. Only the towns of the provinces Holland, and
Utrecht are in the first part. The other maps come from the second part. The
order of the first part is:
Holland:
Dordrecht, Haarlem, Delft,
Leiden, Amsterdam, Gouda,
Rotterdam, Gorkum, Schiedam
(not yet scanned - small format(nys-sf)), Schoonhoven, Briel (nys-sf),
Alkmaar, Hoorn
(nys-sf), Enkhuizen, Medemblik (nys), Edam (nys-sf), Monnickendam (nys-sf),
Purmerend (nys-sf), IJsselstein (nys-sf), Woerden (nys-sf), Oudewater (nys-sf),
Heusden (nys), St. Geertruidenberg (twice, and a picture of the siege by Maurits
of Nassau - nys), Worckum (nys), Naarden (nys-sf), Muiden (nys-sf), Weesp
(nys-sf), Vianen (nys-sf), Leerdam (nys-sf), Asperen (nys-sf), Hoeckelum
(nys-sf), 's Gravezande (nys-sf), Vlaardingen (nys-sf), Delfshaven (nys-sf),
Goeree (nys-sf), 's Gravenhage, Schagen (nys-sf), Beverwijk (nys-sf), Clundert
(nys-sf) and Katwijk aan Zee (nys-sf).
Utrecht:
Utrecht, Amersfoort, Wijk bij Duurstede (nys-sf), and Montfoort (nys-sf).
Not all maps have the same size: some maps are printed over two pages, and
sometimes four maps are printed on two pages. There is also a historical
description of the places in the "Toonneel der Steden". Next to the
city maps are a number of picture of "Huizen" (castles), the Courts in
The Hague and a curious picture of the "Zeilwagen van Prins Maurits"
(sailing car of Prince Maurits).

version you will get a 640x480 image: the JPEG versions offer more
detail but are rather large files and will therefore take some time to
