Old street Map of Polish Konigshutte now Chorzow

I have amanged to obtain an old marriage certificate of my great grandfather and grandmother who got married in Chorzow when it was known as Konigshutte. The marriage cerificate lists the street and numbers which they lived at. A long shot, but does anyone have or know where I can get an old street map which the German street names? I've checked Google and there does not seem to be anything with a high enough resolution to read the street names.

I also have the death certificate of the same great grandmother which references the polish street name she lived in Chorzow and I managed to obatin a good high res map of the town with Polish street names. I am just hoping to complete the story.

thanks for any help.

Absolutley perfect.

Thanks for being so helpful. I can now track down the correct street, and it is a lovely edition to my family tree folder.
