Traveler's Map of Germany - Published 1991 by National Geographic

Traveler’s Map of Germany — National Geographic Wall Map (1991)

Roads ribboning through forests and towns newly reconnected. Published in September 1991—just after reunification—this Traveler’s Map of Germany blends historical notes, city insets, and scenic-route guidance into a clear, room-commanding sheet that invites both planning and close study. Issued as half of a two-map set with “Germany,” and a companion to “The Morning After: Germany Reunited.”

More Than a Map – A Testament to a Turning Point

This isn’t just wall art—it’s a frame for understanding post–Cold War Germany as a place to move through and learn from. Clean symbology sets out motorways and byways, scenic corridors, borders, rivers, and major landmarks, while city insets help you navigate cultural hubs with ease. Ideal for travelers, educators, historians, designers, and collectors.

Hang it in studios, libraries, classrooms, museums, offices, or at home to invite reflection, planning, and conversation.
