The etching, created between 1572 and 1617, offers a fascinating glimpse into the historical city of Groningen in the Netherlands. The plan depicts an exterior view of Groningen, highlighting its architectural marvels such as churches, buildings, and fortifications. With its strong water extracted from Civitates Orbis Terrarum (Atlas of World Cities) by Georg Braun and Franz Hogenberg, this map provides valuable insights into the geography and layout of Groningen during that time period.
