Welcome to Tolkien-Maps.com
This site is a community archive of cartography inspired by the works of
J.R.R. Tolkien — maps of Middle-earth, Beleriand, Númenor, the Shire,
and many other places from his legendarium, contributed by fans and
artists from around the world.
The collection spans many styles and scales: hand-drawn sketches,
detailed painted atlases, digital reconstructions, and scholarly
interpretations. Browse by region using the index, or explore the
categories to find maps of a specific area or age.
Do you recognise your work here?
If you find a map on this site that is yours, or if you have information
about its origin or author, please get in touch — proper attribution
matters.
Do you have maps of your own?
Contributions are very welcome. If you have created a map of any place
from Tolkien's world, feel free to send it in.
2026-05-20Internal re-creation
In recent weeks I have been building an administrative back-end to better manage the future publication of new material. I plan to subsequently review maps and add them to this library.
2026-03-27Security Updates
To ensure safe browsing and to keep crawlers and abusive referrers at bay, I have introduced URL and IP checking to this website. If it reduces the spam I receive significantly enough I would re-open the now disabled feedback pathways for each map.
2026-03-07Website revitalization
I have revived the Tolkien-Maps website by just fixing my PHP, which was long overdue.
I have also re-opened this website's parent at Tolkienion.com
Enjoy!
