Old maps are one of the most important sources of historical geography, helping researchers to find their bearings in the space in which our ancestors lived. It does result, however, in many more problems for research – map design, toponomy of designated areas, the method of creating maps, investigating their purpose and interpreting historical landscapes. This paper aims to undertake a reconstruction of mediaeval settlements in the eastern Ore Mountains using one of the oldest maps, and identify the author’s perception of space and his historical links.
