Global InformationMap of the Duke of Noja information
The Map of the Duke of Noja is a topographic map of city of Naples and its environs, created in 1775. It was the primary topographic and urban planning tool for Naples between the 17th and 19th centuries.
The map was an important cartographic and urban planning tool for the city, an embellished art piece, and has been used even recently, for example, to document the genesis and original layout of a group of over one hundred twenty 18th and 19th century Villas, partly located in Herculaneum and Torre del Greco, collectively known as the Vesuvian Villas of the Golden Mile.
