Original Map Collection page. Note some maps may be available in higher
resolution than shown on the website and can be mailed to you as an
e-mail attachment. Contact the webperson
for details.
Note: A high
resolution
copy of the 1941 German Stadtplan von Czernowitz is in the
Miscellaneous section. This is a large file (1.4 megabytes) in jpg
format. Or, you can click right Here to see
it.
The next five excellent German maps come courtesy of Ivor Lobel and
were made in 1897 from an atlas held in the family. These jpgs were
photographed rather than scanned because of the size of the atlas, and
represent some very professional camera work on Ivor's part. Contact
the webperson if you need higher resolution versions sent to you via
email.
1. Centred on Czernowitz this
map extends from Obertyn in
the northwest to Dorhoiu in the southeast (164k).
2. This
map runs from Sokal in the
northwest
to Botosani in the southeast (344k).
3. Containing all of Bukovina this map
extends from west of Podhajce in the northwest to south of Petra
(Moldava) in the southeast (358k).
4. Centred on Podhajce, this map
extends from Lemberg in the northwest to Okna in northern Bukovina in
the southeast (366k).
5. Here's a map of southeastern Europe from the same
atlas: Lots of rich detail considering the vast expanse of territory.
It covers from Czernowitz in the north northeast to Constantinople in
the south east; and from Hungary in the northwest to the Adriatic in
the southwest. It's quite large and was hard to reduce and still keep
all the place names legible. A compromise on my part, not Ivor's (820k).
6. An excellent 2006 pictorial streetmap
of downtown Czernowitz with the Ukranian street names shown in Latin
characters (English that is). This is the map that used to be on
the home page during the reunion.
7. This is the map enclosed with the "Illustrierter Führer durch
die Bukowina" from Hermann Mittelmann 1907/1908. Probably taken
from the reprint by Helmut Kusdat, 2002. I'ts a large, easy
to read, full colour 1907
street map of Czernowitz -- about 700k
8. Here's a map of historical interest: The orginal is a street map from 1787,
but published in 1887. It was used for tax assesment purposes. It does
locate the 'Old Synagogue' (28). Peter Elbau translated the
Gothic script which is overlayed on the map. Another large file --
about 800k. (from the Gruss aus Czernowitz Live Journal)
9. 1935 Cernauti city map showing bus and trolly lines withmajor places of interest clearly indicated.
