Ryhiner Map Collection

The Ryhiner Map Collection “consists of more than 16,000 maps, charts, plans and views from the 16th to the 18th century, covering the whole globe. Together with the 20,000 manuscript maps of the State Archives, the Canton of Berne owns not only a local, but a worldwide geographical memory.” In German and English. High-resolution scans in the Swiss section; smaller images elsewhere, in incomplete sections (sometimes open directories). Thanks again to peacay.
