Lonely Planet review for Globenmuseum

Part of the Nationalbibliothek (National Library) collection of museums, this small museum situated inside a former palace (Palais Mollard) is dedicated to cartography. Among the collection of 19th-century globes and maps are a couple of gems a few centuries older. Look for the globe made for Emperor Karl V by Mercator in 1541. An interactive model of this alongside the real one allows you to zoom in on the 16th-century world for close-ups that get a little rough.
