description Haack Weltatlas Overview

Haack Weltatlas is a German-language world atlas associated with the cartographic tradition of Gotha, a longstanding center of German mapmaking. Editions were produced by the geographic and cartographic publishing institution bearing Hermann Haack's name, including the state-owned VEB Hermann Haack in East Germany. The atlas was designed primarily for education and reference, combining physical, political, economic, and thematic maps of the world.

What is the Haack Weltatlas?

Haack Weltatlas is a German-language school world atlas rooted in the cartographic publishing tradition of Gotha and Hermann Haack ([Ernst Klett Verlag](https://www.klett.de/inhalt/terra/haack-weltatlas/317235)). Current editions combine physical, political, economic, and thematic maps with digital learning material.

Who publishes the Haack Weltatlas today?

Ernst Klett Verlag publishes current Haack Weltatlas editions, while the name preserves the legacy of cartographer Hermann Haack and the Gotha atlas institutions. The publisher offers general and state-specific editions for German schools.

Does Haack Weltatlas have regional German editions?

Yes, the current school line includes a general edition and versions for states such as Baden-Württemberg, Bavaria, and North Rhine-Westphalia ([2025 product overview](https://www.klett.de/lehrwerk/haack-weltatlas-sekundarstufe-i-ausgabe-ab-2025/produktuebersicht)). That matters because map selections and curricular material can be tailored to the school state's geography syllabus.

Which school years is the 2025 Haack Weltatlas made for?

The general 2025 edition is listed for Sekundarstufe I, classes 5 to 10. Klett's product page lists it with digital media, so it is a school atlas rather than a purely historical facsimile.
