Abstract: Please click here to download the map associated with this article. The paper describes previous maps of the Gospić-Senj Diocese, Croatia, and the production of a new map. It explains the motivation in producing a new map of this diocese, and describes the first working version. Additionally, it also describes the factors taken into account during the map's production, and catalogues the difficulties involved in the organization and presentation of certain thematic content. The project on which the paper is based is unique because it researches sacral topics and objects that have not been hitherto acknowledged or depicted cartographically. It attempts to produce a map that is built around sacral themes and that emphasizes details relating to the above-mentioned diocese. The procedure, though complicated by a shortage of available data, entailed commonplace data collection and analysis, and afforded the authors exposure to the difficulties of making and designing maps.
