A contemporary Dutch map o f the Danish capital at the time o f the Swedish siege, 16 g 8 -l6 6 o . The recentlyfounded town o f Christianshavn is shown as afo r tife d bridge-head on the north shore o f the island o f Amager.

map (ill. p. 63) was commissioned by the authorities in an effort to settle boundary disputes between Christianshavn’s property owners — a fruitful busi­ ness of the period for the Copenhagen and Christianshavn legal profession and one that supplied plenty of work and headaches even for the Danish Supreme Court (ill. p. g?). The former Jakob Madsen property at Strandgade (ill. p. 65) eventually came into the hands of two merchant brothers, but they too went bankrupt as a result of losses they suffered during the European wars in the 1690’s and the property was again distrained upon and sold by auction in 1699.
