Madrid 1901: A Historical Map of Spain's Capital Province
Located in Langweer, NL
The map is of the province of Madrid, the capital region of Spain, as it appeared in 1901. Here are the key features it displays:
The map shows the central part of Spain, with the Guadarrama mountain range prominently visible, marking the natural border to the north of Madrid.
Blue lines likely indicate rivers, including the Manzanares River, which flows through Madrid, and the Jarama River, a tributary to the Tagus.
Red lines depict the roads and railways, outlining the infrastructure that connects Madrid's various towns and cities within the province and beyond.
Symbols and labels mark the locations of cities, towns, and villages, with Madrid itself likely being the focal point. Dotted lines may represent the administrative divisions within the province. The map includes a legend (Signos Convencionales) that explains the symbols used for provincial capitals, roads, railways, and other geographic features.
The coat of arms of Madrid, featuring a bear and a strawberry tree (madroño), is prominently featured, symbolizing the city's and the province's historical coat of arms.
About the province of Madrid:
Madrid is not only the capital of Spain but also the heart of the Iberian Peninsula, both geographically and politically. The city is renowned for its rich repositories of European art, including the Prado Museum's works by Goya, Velázquez, and other Spanish masters. The province of Madrid is characterized by a blend of historical and modern elements, with a rich cultural life that includes theater, opera, and flamenco, as well as gastronomy that features a mix of traditional Spanish dishes and international cuisine...

Echoes of Empire: Spanish Territories in West Africa, 1903
Located in Langweer, NL
This is a historical map showing Spanish possessions in West Africa from the year 1903. The map includes the islands of Fernando Póo (now known as Bioko), part of the modern-day country of Equatorial Guinea, Annobón Island, and the Elobey Islands, along with the Spanish-controlled areas on the continental region near Rio Muni.
These territories were part of Spain's colonial empire and are situated in the Gulf of Guinea, off the coast of Central Africa. Fernando Póo (Bioko) is particularly notable for its volcanic origins and as a center of cocoa production during the colonial period. Annobón, lying further southwest of Bioko, is a small volcanic island. The Elobey Islands are very small and located near the coast of Gabon.
Here's a brief overview of their significance:
1. **Bioko Island (Fernando Póo)**: The island has a rich biodiversity and is known for its unique flora and fauna, including several endemic species. Malabo, the capital city of Equatorial Guinea, is located here.
2. **Annobón Island**: This remote island has a small population and is known for its isolation and distinctive Creole culture, which has developed independently from the mainland.
3. **Elobey Islands**: These consist of Elobey Grande and Elobey Chico and are situated near the mouths of the Muni and Campo rivers. They were historically important as transit points in river trade...
