Map Room (700-1500)

This exhibition shows world maps created between 700CE and 1500CE. But which worlds do they show - history, culture, religion or even geography?
There are nineteen maps from eighteen libraries and museums spread over nine different countries. The exhibition is accompanied by an eLibrary with access to over sixty (free) online publications.
