This handsome map of the Diocese of Freising in Bavaria covers the region between Freising and Hall in Tirol, and Landsberg am Lech and Wasserburg including Munich and the Bavarian lakes. The map is densely engraved with information on the mountainous topography and hundreds of place names, castles, fortifications, forests, marshes, canals, and roads. It is richly embellished with two cartouches featuring scenes of hunting, farming, and fishing and the coat of arms that features the Moor of Freising.
