Help with maps of Europe during the Dark/Middle Ages?

SteveC

Doing the best imitation of myself
Hi everyone,
I am putting together a campaign that looks like it will be starting a bit sooner than I had originally planned. I'm still looking to put together a map for the campaign world, which is actually not the hugest concern because the campaign will be tightly focuses.

What I'm looking for would be an online resource for maps of Europe during the Dark/Middle Ages that were either actually made during those times or are designed to look as if they were. I found plenty of accurate maps, but I'm looking looking for more of the fanciful representation than the accurate one. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

The Ebstorf Mappae Mundi was the biggest and most accurate map of its time, made around 1300.

Here is image material about the Hereford Mappae Mundi, made around the same time as the Ebstorf map:

Here is a good resource for all kinds of medieval maps. The site is in German, but it should be easy to find some cool maps in there

Hope that helps
