This anonymous 17th-century map, “Plattegrond van Saint-Malo,” depicts the French coastal city of Saint-Malo in meticulous detail. Created between 1693-1695, the map showcases the city’s fortifications and surrounding landscape. The simple lines and detailed urban layout create a fascinating snapshot of the city's urban planning and infrastructure in the 17th century. Now housed in the Rijksmuseum, this map is a valuable historical document for understanding the architecture and strategic importance of Saint-Malo during this period.
