Summary[edit]

Description
English: Engraved, detailed plan of Batavia, East Indies. Copied after Clement de Jonghe's map on a smaller scale, with one major alteration: the coastline in front of the fortress as curving inwards; the river had silted up here, so that the coast came to lie some distance from the castle.

Present day Jakarta.
