An exceptionally detailed 19th-century plan of Zürich, created in 1867 by Heinrich Weiss-Keiser and based on earlier surveys by Breitinger. Published by the Topographical Bureau of the City of Zürich and printed by J.J. Hofer, this map documents the Swiss metropolis at a pivotal moment, when Zürich was transitioning from a walled town to a modern industrial and cultural center.
Rendered in delicate pastel tones and clean architectural linework, the map highlights street layouts, public buildings, gardens, and early railway infrastructure. Newly assigned house numbers are marked throughout, a sign of the city’s growing administrative precision. The autographic printing technique lends the map a refined, almost manuscript quality typical of Zürich’s mid-century cartography.
A historically significant and visually understated piece of Swiss urban mapping, reflecting both scientific accuracy and 19th-century design elegance. A perfect addition for collectors of Swiss history, urban development maps, or European topographical engravings.
