Desiré Heyse's 1853 "KAART van de MINAHASSA in de RESIDENTSIE MANADO" is a detailed map of the Minahassa region in North Sulawesi, Indonesia. It displays a network of roads, villages, and geographical features like mountains and rivers. Heyse was a cartographer, known for his precise and informative maps. This map is a historical document, valuable for its insight into the region's geography and infrastructure during the mid-19th century, and could be used for research on the history of Indonesia and Dutch colonial rule.
