Copper engraving by Matthaeus Merian from Martin Zeiller’s and Matthaeus
Merian’s „Topographia Hassiae et Regionum Vicinarum“, Frankfurt am Main 1646.
Original size approx. 20 x 32.5 centimetres.
Merian did not draw Friedberg on location, but used a template drawn by Wilhelm Dilich which in 1605 was published as an
etching in the latter’s book „Hessian Chronica“ in Kassel. As a masterful engraver Merian skillfully transformed Dillich’s source to
great eect. us the Merian engraving became the best-known cityscape of Friedberg. e view shows the then independent parts
of the imperial castle and the Reichsstadt as a single unit. Friedberg’s elevated location overlooking the little river Usa is depicted
as a fortied town (with walls, towers, and gates) as seen from the northeast. Of the prominent and strongly emphasized buildings
only the Stadtkirche (city church) and the Adolfsturm remain; just the Red Tower bears witness of the town fortication, though
large parts of the castle’s fortication are still intact. e centerpiece of the drawing is a group of houses, the „Siechenhaus“, a
medieval plague hospital for languishing patients (lepers and people suering from the plague etc.), which usually is erected outside
of cities to protect the rest of the population against infection. It was destroyed during the irty Years War and probably had
vanished completely when the drawing was published. is, too, indicates that the image shows the situation of the year 1605 and
not the conditions of 1646.
