WWI Map Paraćin
***
Scale: 1:75,000
Region: Serbia (specifically Paraćin and surrounding area)
Date of Base Survey: 1875
Updated/Published: Marked “Nachtr. 20. II. 1907” (possibly meaning updated February 20, 1907)
Produced by: Austro-Hungarian military
The map centers around the town of Paraćin, located in central Serbia. Other key locations visible include: Ćuprija (northwest of Paraćin), Jagodina (further northwest), Morava River (meandering through the area) and multiple mountain ranges and valleys detailed with contour lines.
Paraćin was part of a strategically significant corridor in Serbia, especially during the Balkan Wars and World War I, as powers sought control over the Morava Valley – a vital transportation and communication route. This map would have supported operational planning and reconnaissance for troop movements, supply logistics, and artillery placement. Consistent with Austro-Hungarian Spezialkarte series used for military planning.
