‘Maps in books’ is a temporary exhibition in the MAP - Curiosum exhibition hall and acts as an ‘opening precursor’ to the new MAP - Mercator experience museum in Sint-Niklaas. From the 15th century, maps appeared in atlases and travelogues, as evidence of discoveries or as instruments of power and governance. Regional maps recorded land boundaries and property. Military maps determined strategies in battles.
