    Would anyone know where to pickup a map of Bohemia and Moravia from around 1835?

    Thanks

    What kind of maps? Or, for what purpose?

    There are online maps, for example.

    See http://www.mapy.cz. It is Czech analog of Google Earth. You can change the types of the map in top left corner: základní = basic, turistická = touristic, fotomapa = photomap, další mapy = other maps, historická 1836-1852 = historic 1836-1852, fotomapa 2002-03 = photomap 2002-03.

    A collection of historic maps is here. The names are mostly in German, just look for Böhmen (= Bohemia) or Mähren (= Moravia), see e.g.:

    Bohemia 1802
    Bohemia 1862

    Moravia 1802
    Moravia 1804
    Moravia 1836
    Moravia (& Silesia) 1863?
    Moravia (& Silesia) 1880-1888?

    Thanks for all the maps, Those are great.

    I was curious and looking to see how CZ was broken up back in 1835 compared to today.
