Mapping Medieval ViennaThe Social Topography of Vienna in the 15th Century

该项目调查了“漫长的”15世纪维也纳的社会地貌。为此，该市的一些土地登记将首次转录，并与传真一起在网上公布。由于买家、卖家和债权人的邻居总是在土地登记中记录的交易和借款中被点名，这些数据使得在空间上定位所有房屋所有者成为可能。在大多数情况下，单个地块的确切位置和大小只能结合进一步的(考古)信息来确定。因此，我们与维也纳城市考古学家合作，他们不仅参与了对中世纪建筑遗迹的探索，而且还拥有地理信息系统的经验。通过这种方式，我们将能够在城市的至少部分地区创建基于地理信息系统的地块平面图。特别是对于Widmerviertel，我们有1448年和1526年的税单，其中按顺序列出了这个地区的居民。这些清单为我们的社会地形工作提供了参考。我们工作的主要目标是从社会历史的角度来描述和分析邻里关系。哪些职业群体居住在哪里，在什么条件下生活，个别街道和社区的社会构成在研究期间发生了怎样的变化？近年来，已经做了一些前期工作。因此，在项目结束时，我们将能够绘制一幅维也纳社区的全面社会地形图。在项目过程中，我们将与维也纳合作伙伴密切合作，最重要的是将他们的考古研究纳入我们的工作。我们的成果将被维也纳博物馆整合到关于这座城市历史的新的永久展览中。博物馆参观者将被邀请使用互动媒体根据社会经济标准探索这座中世纪城市。

The project investigates the social topography of the city of Vienna in the "long" 15th century. For this purpose, some of the city's land registers will be transcribed for the first time and published online together with the facsimiles. Since the neighbors of the buyers, sellers, and creditors are always named in the transactions and borrowings documented in the land registers, these data make it possible to locate all the house owners spatially. In most cases, the exact location and size of the individual plots can only be determined in combination with further (archaeological) information. We therefore work together with Viennese city archaeologists, who are not only involved in the exploration of the architectural remains of the Middle Ages themselves, but also have experience with GIS. In this way we will be able to create GIS-based parcel plans in at least some parts of the city. For the Widmerviertel in particular, we have tax lists from the years 1448 and 1526, which list the inhabitants of this quarter in order. These lists serve as a reference point for our social topographical work. The main goal of our work is to describe and analyze neighborhood relations from a socio-historical perspective. Which occupational groups lived where and in which conditions and how did the social composition of individual streets and neighborhoods change during the period under study? Some preliminary work has already been done in recent years. At the end of the project, we will therefore be able to draw up a comprehensive social topographical picture of the Viennese community. In the course of the project, we will work closely with our Viennese partners and above all include their archaeological studies in our work. Our results will be integrated by the Wien Museum into the new permanent exhibition on the history of the city. Museum visitors will be invited to explore the medieval city according to socio-economic criteria using interactive media.
