toreboda-rotkilen250.jpg (13292 bytes)This map shows a section of Elias Schveder's general map from 1784. It shows the planned stretch of the Göta Canal through the town of Töreboda. At that time, it was a small village (Torreboda By). Daniel Thunberg's proposal has also been included on the map. Both of the stretches of canal overlapped at this location.

A network of roads, drawn in pencil, can also be found on the map. It served as a reference when, for example, making detail maps in a larger scale.
