Summary/Abstract: At the beginning there wasn’t supposed to be a book or any historical research. After I had managed to revive the activities of the Karel the Elder of Žerotín Foundation at the end of 2015, its former chair and current member reiterated at several board meetings that the Foundation would be able to publish a reprint of the oldest map of Bludov, the rare Glaubitz map from 1741, the original of which is kept in the Olomouc section of the Provincial Archive in Opava. He had already had this dream back in the 1990s. I had overheard this twice and just thought – what was the point of it all? Something for a few anoraks… It came up again at another meeting at the start of 2018, which was when I thought about making it much wider by publishing a whole atlas of historical maps depicting Bludov (the aforementioned Glaubitz map, the first and second military mappings /1764-1768, 1837-1838/, a map of the Stable Cadastre and an indication sketch of the Stable Cadastre /1834/ and a map of the local nomenclature) and adding a legend. I already knew those maps – I had spent several hours studying them and I realized there would be little point in publishing them without a commentary.
