On fol. 1v (top left) a hemispherical world map (a mappa mundi) is found. An astronomical pen-drawing of the constellations of the sun, the moon and the earth along with the position of the continents. The sun and the moon are filled in with red ink.

The text inside the mappa mundi was edited in The Mappae mundi of Medieval Iceland, 190-191 and Altnordische Kosmographie 406-407No 4a.. In the former, a translation into English is added in a second column.

On fol. 1v (bottom right) a circular diagram is showing the moon, Mercury, Venus, the sun, Mars, Jupiter and Saturn orbiting around planet Earth.

On fol. 2r a full-page map of Jerusalem. The ground-plan has the form of a circle divided into four sections by a cross. The main buildings and monuments are depicted, illuminated in red and yellow, and the names of the monuments or their function are given in Latin.
