"Plattegrond van Limburg" is a detailed map of the city of Limburg, created by Dutch artist Abraham Allard between 1703 and 1714. The map, housed in the Rijksmuseum, is a stunning example of Dutch cartography from the 18th century. It depicts the city's layout, including its fortifications, rivers, and surrounding landscape. The intricate details and precise measurements demonstrate Allard's meticulous approach to mapmaking. This work offers a valuable glimpse into the urban planning and development of the region during this period.
