In the organizer's words:
Guided tour through the Mercator Treasury
The polymath Gerhard Mercator lived in Duisburg in the 16th century, where he created the majority of his works. In his house on Oberstraße, he produced globes of heaven and earth, invented the "atlas" and developed his famous world map "ad usum navigantium", with which he laid the foundations of modern navigation. During his guided tour, Werner Pöhling explains the significance of Gerhard Mercator's work to this day.
