This map shows part of west-central Bavaria in great detail, including the cities of Pappenheim, Eichstatt, and Weissenburg. The inset map at top right depicts Bellenberg, just south of Ulm, and at bottom right is a fine bird's-eye view of Pappenheim with individual buildings shown. Two superb cartouches fill the remaining corners of the map, featuring cows and sheep in a pasture, as well as a number of just-hunted animals.
