Abstract

This article presents maps of reconstructions of selected primary (i.e. prior to the thirteenth-century founding of the town) abiotic components of the natural environment of medieval Toruń (northern Poland, Kuyavian-Pomeranian Voivodeship) and its close suburbs. The reconstructions were carried out on the basis of topographical, geological and historical data. Despite their many limitations, the procedures employed represent the first attempt at a quantitative reconstruction of the primary relief, surface geology and hydrology of the analysed area. The result of the reconstruction presented on the maps could be used as the basis for both a reconstruction of biotic components of the natural environment and verification of hypotheses regarding the conditions of the founding and spatial development of the town.
