DescriptionThis map shows an aerial view of Dresden, Germany. The majority of the page is an aerial map of the city in shades of red, green, and tan. The city is walled on two sides, and a river (the Elbe) runs through it. Surrounding the walled city are smaller settlements and farm fields. In the upper right corner of the map is the Dresden coat of arms, which is a griffin on one side of a shield, and three vertical stripes on the other side of the shield. Along a narrow portion of the entire left side of the page is a key to places on the map. Across the entire bottom length of the map is a black and white illustration of the city of Dresden at the Elbe River.
