766 Usedom II

Part of the collection: Archival maps

Popularization note

The map is an appendix to the index of toponyms, which was developed as part of the project initiated by Pomeranian linguist, Dr Robert Holsten (1862-1954), with the aim to collect and compile contemporary folk and archive names of natural and anthropogenic physiographic objects, as well as inhabited and uninhabited places collected with local queries. The Meßtischblatt topographic maps at a scale of 1:25 000 are characterised by a very high level of detail and accuracy in mapping the topography of the terrain.

The 766 Usedom II map was drawn and published in 1886, revised in 1911, and reprinted in 1925. It covers the areas surrounding Usedom, Kreis Usedom-Wollin, Reg. Bez. Stettin, Prov. Pommern, today Kreis Vorpommern-Greifswald, Bundesland Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, Germany. It is one of the two surviving copies of the pre-war topographic map marked with the sheet number 766, containing data on the location of objects and their names in the Flurnamen Sammlung archive. The printed map features a hand-drawn layer with the numbers of physiographic objects connected to the localities of Gneventhin, Usedom, Stolpe, Zecherin, Kolgin, Karnin, Gellenthin, Wilhelmshof, Ostklüne, Welzin.
