Map of the island of Hven from a copper etching of Willem Janszoon Blaeu's Blaeu Atlas 1663.

Willem made this map while a student of Tycho Brahe between 1594 and 1596.

On this map North is up, Denmark to the west and Scania, now part of Sweden, to the east.

It shows the location of Uraniborg just above the centre, and below the linked set of ponds that Tycho had created to both collect water and power his papermill and other small industries on the island.
