This detailed map of the city of Namen (also known as Namur) in Belgium was created by Dutch cartographer Jacobus Harrewijn between 1709 and 1712. The intricate drawing provides a visual representation of the city's layout, including its fortifications, streets, and surrounding landscape. The map, now part of the Rijksmuseum's collection, offers a glimpse into the urban planning and military architecture of 18th-century Europe.
