It provides a detailed city plan of Hanover, the capital of Lower Saxony, showing the city layout along the River Leine. Prominent buildings, street grids, and open areas are represented in the cityscape, with a list of notable locations included for reference. The map features an ornate border and includes the coat of arms of Lower Saxony, adding to its decorative appeal. Hanover is historically significant as the family seat of the Hanoverian Kings of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland. The city plan highlights both the defensive bastions and the urban areas, providing an interesting look into the city’s layout during the late 18th century.
