The EXOSAT observations of the LMC X-4 region, obtained during more than 70h observing time from 1983 to 1986, are examined. The observations were performed with the low energy x ray telescope and channel multiplier array and 3000 angstrom Lexan filter are combined into one image. The supernova remnants N49 and N63A and the Me star LHG57 are detected in the EXOSAT image and in addition the x ray source EXO 053109-6609.2. This EXOSAT LMC transient is only visible during 1983. The star HD37935, the emission nebulae N55 and N55A, a stellar association near N62A, the star cluster NGC2003 are also shown, however, they are not detected due to UV radiation leaking through the filter.
