Oleszyce Cadastral Map 1854
A complete full-color cadastral map of the town of Oleszyce (Олешичі, Halshitz, האַלשיץ), surveyed and lithographed in 1854. This is a final-state cadastral map including land and building parcel numbers but no house numbers, with redline revisions from a later survey. In 1854 the small market square was mostly ringed with masonry buildings, with two marked synagogues (of brick and wood) on the northeast corner; two masonry churches are just off the square to the west. The Jewish community made up more than half of Oleszyce; its cemetery is south of the center. The Christian cemetery is just off the map to the west, in the majority Greek-Catholic community of Oleszyce Stare. Images for this map were provided to Gesher Galicia by the Archiwum Państwowe w Przemyślu.
