About the Medieval Atlas The Medieval Atlas is a directory of maps,
charts, geographic drawings and illustrations, illuminations, and
other cartographic representations of the world in general, and the
geography of Europe in particular, during the Middle Ages. Both
historical maps and period or "antique" maps are included.
The directory links to maps on the web as well as
to maps right here at the Medieval History site. Many maps are in the
public domain and may be downloaded and used freely; however, please
check each individual page for copyright notices and any terms of use
for the map it displays.

Atlas main page.
