Jan Van Hanswijk (fl. late 16th century) was a Flemish surveyor and cartographer, best known for making a map of the city of Mechelen, completed in the last quarter of the 16th century.^[1][2][3] His map is the second oldest preserved city map of Mechelen.^[1] Differently from Jacob van Deventer, who had made an earlier map, he depicted all important city buildings in his own map. After two centuries the map was in such a bad state that the Count of Coloma commissioned a copy from Jan Baptist De Noter.^[1]
