Danzig Evolves from the Middle Ages

Three contemporary Polish maps show the areas studied: 1520, 1640 & 1660. rome features are difficult to find; e.g. the Oliwska Gate (8) must be a guess on the top 3 dimensional chart. The major points:
(1) St. Brigid
(2) St. Katherine with tomb.
(3)Great Mill
(4)Old Rathaus where Hevelius was member.
(5)Location of his home, telescope and platform on Korzenna street
(6)St.Elizabeth & Cloister
(7)St. Bartholomew
