Riga panorama. (-in the Reformation times) Author H.

Hasentoter(?) Ca 1547
The Panorama inserted in Sebastian Munster's book "Cosmographie oder Beshreibung aller Lander" published in 1550.


Riga is depicted as a densely built and strongly fortified city with the spires of three central churches. To the left next to Riga one can see the castle of the Livonian Order , in the forefront- the Daugava with ships and boats.
