Valvasor`s workshop The Slovenian cartographic collection

The Slovenian cartographic collection

Wagensberg is a fitting venue for the presentation of the TMS Cartographic Collection. Namely, Johann Weichard Valvasor was himself -among many other things - an eminent surveyor and map-maker who studied and featured this nations topography more than threehundred years ago. Valvasors collections and descriptions, as well as his maps, vindicate his position as one of the most eminent and

accomplished scientists and polymaths of his age.

The Cartographic Collection encompasses three rooms on the third floor of the castles south wing, together with a specially refurbishedattic gallery, which leads to the lookout tower. The collection is arranged in chronological order, and presents the development ofsurveying, geodesy and cartography from its very beginnings. The history covers the Roman period and the Middle Ages, before going on totrace the evolution of land registers over the centuries. 20th-century developments are also included in this exhibition, which shall befurther modernised and complemented in the future.
