Summary
| Description |
Photo of maquette of Haarlem showing the Teyler's Hofje in the center on the Spaarne river in 1822. Orientation: Top middle shows Haarlem St. Bavo Cathedral and lower left shows the 'Amsterdamse Poort' the city gate facing the canal to Amsterdam known as the 'trekvaart'. Photo taken in the archive museum of Haarlem, where a room-sized model of the city is on show based on a map drawn by the surveyor Ferdinand Joseph Nautz (1785-1841) in 1822. Nautz was a member of a group of surveyors hired in 1817 to map the Dutch towns in order serve as a basis for taxes. The hand-colored and hand-drawn maps were created in 1822 by Nautz and his colleagues H.C. van Dooren and A. van Diggelen. They are in the possession of the Dutch National Archives. For the town of Haarlem, Nautz created a set of maps of Haarlem where not only ownership rights, but also houses were drawn. Quite popular, these maps were reproduced by book sellers and sold at the time for 3 guilders to travelers as the first city-maps. This set of maps belongs to the city of Haarlem, and has been used as the basis for city planning as late as 1900. Historische Museum Zuid-Kennemerland, Haarlem |
