The antique map titled ‘Orcadvm et Schetlandiae Insvlarvm accuratissima descriptio’ was created in 1665 and depicts the accurate description of the Orkney and Shetland Islands. The United Kingdom in the early 17th Century was a time of great change and exploration. The map shows the rugged coastline and scattered islands of the northern regions, with Kirkwall, Wick and Lerwick located centrally. The map provides a glimpse into the geography and landscape of the area, allowing us to imagine the challenges and opportunities faced by those who lived and travelled here centuries ago.
