!!!Albertinischer Plan
Albertinischer Plan (Albertinian Map), colored pen-and-ink drawing in
the Historisches Museum der Stadt Wien (Historical Museum of the City
of Vienna), one of the oldest medieval city maps, a copy from the 2nd
half of the 15th century after an original probably drawn in
1421/1422. The map gives an overview of the walled-in city and its
immediate surroundings, also showing Pressburg (now Bratislava) in the
upper left corner. The Danube, River Wien and Alserbach stream are
also shown, as well as churches, monasteries and the university.
