To Bieke,
A quick search of the words 'Skopje ' and ' Bitola ' in the WHOLE ww1-forum
( http://1914-1918.invisionzone.com/forums/index.php?act=idx ) (english
language) gives 20
postings for Skopje and 2 postings for Bitola.
There is also a dutch-language ww1 forum (
http://www.forumeerstewereldoorlog.nl/ )
Iam a member of both fora.

Subject: [MapHist] historical plans of Macedonian cities under the Ottoman
Empire and during WWI

A graduate student at our university is studying the urban history of the
Macedonian cities Skopje and Bitola, in the context of a master thesis.
The research is rather complicated, due to the apparant lack of (or not
yet revealed) historical maps for these towns in the period of the Ottoman
Empire (untill +- 1907) and in the following period, more specifically
until the end of WWI. Our lack of expertise on the region, directs me to
this mailing list.
Would anyone be willing to point out the archives to research, an expert
to consult, or -worst case scenario- justify why these historical city
plans are so hard to find or possibly do not exist ?
Best regards,
