This 1643 depiction of Stuttgart presents the Württemberg capital as a fortified Renaissance town set within a gently undulating landscape of vineyards, fields, and wooded hills. The city is shown in bird’s-eye perspective, a common seventeenth-century cartographic convention that balances geographic description with pictorial detail. Stuttgart’s dense core is enclosed by stout defensive walls, bastions, and gates, emphasizing its strategic and administrative importance during the turbulent era of the Thirty Years’ War.

At the heart of the city, prominent civic and religious buildings rise above tightly packed houses with steep gabled roofs. The ducal residence, churches, and market spaces are clearly distinguished, underscoring Stuttgart’s role as the seat of the Dukes of Württemberg. Streets appear narrow and irregular, reflecting medieval urban development rather than later Baroque planning. Outside the walls, orderly vineyards and agricultural plots stretch across the surrounding slopes, highlighting the region’s long-standing viticultural economy.
