At Bystrzec, there is a castle which was recently converted into a hotel (the White Manor) http://www.bialy-dwor.pl/index_pl.htm Comment: White Manor (recently converted into a hotel) would be a perfectly legitimate English translation of the German Weisshof. Francis/Franz/Franciszek Herbert -----Original Message----- From: maphist-boun...@geo.uu.nl [mailto:maphist-boun...@geo.uu.nl] On Behalf Of Christos Nüssli Sent: 22 December 2011 00:14 To: Discussion group for map history Subject: Re: [MapHist] Prussian town location Le 22.12.2011 00:34, Michael Ritter a écrit : I suppose it's this one: about three km south of the city centre of Grudziadz (former Graudenz) there is Mniszek (Mischke), another km south you can find Bialy Bor (former Weißheide and Weißhof). Michael Maybe yes. Take into account however that Bystrzec has now been integrated into Podzamcze (~10 km east of Gniew), near Kwidzyn, and there are 50 km between Bystrzec and Mniszek, but the road crosses Grudziadz. At Bystrzec, there is a castle which was recently converted into a hotel (the White Manor) http://www.bialy-dwor.pl/index_pl.htm (rated 8.1 on booking.com) I should be possible to check both possibilities on the David Rumsey recently added Karte des Deutschen Reiches, 1893 but the server is too busy this evening. _____________________________ Christos Nüssli Europe Maps - http://www.euratlas.org
