About the Item

This is a woodcut city view of Worms, published in Sebastian Münster's Cosmographia around 1578. The image depicts a bird's-eye view of the city of Worms, located in Rheinland-Pfalz, Germany, as seen from the Rhine River. The scene includes the city's surrounding walls, churches, towers, and various buildings, all intricately detailed in the woodcut. Sebastian Münster's Cosmographia was one of the most important and influential works of geography and cartography in the 16th century. This map of Worms is one of the earliest known printed depictions of the city, and it is notable for the level of architectural detail in the buildings and fortifications. The title, "Die Statt Worms, Welche bey den Alten genant worden Urbs Vangonium," refers to the city's ancient name, Vangionum, reflecting its long history. The lower portion of the image contains a key with corresponding letters and descriptions, identifying notable buildings and landmarks within the city, such as various churches and religious institutions. This particular view serves not only as a geographical and architectural record but also as a cultural artifact from a period when city views were becoming a significant part of printed atlases.
