Spotlighting a gem of the Map Collection<\/a> of the National and University Library in Zagreb (NSK), the second event of the 2026 Heritage at Hand at CroAtrium<\/a><\/em> programme took its participants on a journey to 18th<\/sup>-century Dalmatia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Professor at the Zadar University\u2019s Department of Geography Lena Miro\u0161evi\u0107<\/a> presented to the event participants Catastico delle Publiche Pradarie e Picchetti<\/a><\/em>, a rare manuscript atlas featuring the cadastral maps of Dalmatia which NSK acquired and added to its holdings<\/a> in 2025.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The history of a cultural landscape captured in a jewel of cartography<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Created in 1756, as part of a cadastral reform undertaken by a Venetian governor Francesco Grimani, the historical atlas\u2019s thirty maps represent a particularly valuable cadastral record with a register of then state-owned land.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In her lecture, Professor Miro\u0161evi\u0107 provided many interesting details about this jewel of cartography and the circumstances surrounding its making. Featuring maps of Benkovac<\/a>, Drni\u0161<\/a>, Knin<\/a>, Sinj<\/a>, \u017drnovnica<\/a> and other Dalmatian cities and towns, Catastico<\/em>\u2026 offers a unique perspective on the history of Dalmatia\u2019s cultural landscape. Also, it includes a systematic list of individual plots and their users as well as the representation of plots, settlements, paths and natural borders, which all makes it an indispensable documentary record.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Of NSK\u2019s approximately 43,000 cartographic items, Catastico<\/em>\u2026 is among the most valuable. Counted among manuscript and historical material, it is one of more than 1,700 currently digitised NSK\u2019s cartographic treasures<\/a>. You may search and explore them in 17 collections on the NSK Digital Collections<\/a> website, where you may also find out about the latest digitised maps and atlases in the Collection<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Spotlighting Croatia\u2019s largest library collection \u2013 all through the year<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Heritage at Hand at CroAtrium<\/em> is our central annual programme aimed at the promotion, interpretation and popularisation of the invaluable heritage in NSK\u2019s collections<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This year, apart from the Library\u2019s cartographic treasures, we already presented the musical heritage<\/a> which we curate, while the upcoming, third event will spotlight Croatica\u2019s artwork on paper<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
