The book presentation of Jos and Bauke Hüske's 'Eindhoven staat op de kaart' is an event that showcases the authors' extensive collection of old prints and city maps of Eindhoven. It provides a fascinating journey through the five-hundred-year history of Eindhoven's cartography, with a focus on the maps and city plans that have shaped the city. The authors have uncovered intriguing discoveries during their exploration of these maps, including instances where the Dommel river is depicted flowing through the old town of Eindhoven instead of the Gender river, and maps showcasing a residential neighborhood that was never actually built, complete with non-existent street names. The book is filled with these peculiarities, along with a wealth of informative content. The first four chapters offer a more scientific approach, analyzing the fortification maps of Hogenberg and Baudartius, as well as the maps of the Kempenland quarter. The later chapters emphasize the city's development, featuring many familiar maps that readers may have owned or come across. The book also covers the cadastre, topographical maps, expansion plans, and popular map publications from Lecturis, VVV, Koonings, Falkplan, and Freytag & Berndt. Additionally, the book includes unique and noteworthy maps, such as those printed on a designer dress or a play mat, and even maps crafted from laser-engraved wood. Join the authors on this captivating journey through the history and evolution of Eindhoven, as they bring to light the remarkable world of cartography.
