Description
Nederlands: Na de inname van de stad in 1632 door Frederik Hendrik was Maastricht uitgebouwd tot een sterke vesting op de grens met de door Spanje beheerste

Zuidelijke Nederlanden. Dit militaire aspect komt goed tot uiting in deze plattegrond van de stad die in 1708 in Parijs werd uitgegeven. Dat juist in Parijs zon gedetailleerde kaart van de vesting werd gepubliceerd is niet zo vreemd. Frankrijk was sinds 1702 met de Republiek en Engeland in een oorlog verwikkeld, met de Spaanse Nederlanden als belangrijkste inzet. Hoewel het niet tot een beleg van de stad kwam, werd de verovering van

militaire bolwerk wel degelijk overwogen.
English: After the capture of the city in 1632 by Frederik Hendrik, Maastricht was built up as a strong fortress at the border of the Southern Netherlands which

was ruled by Spain. The military aspect is clearly distinguishable in the city plan published in Paris in 1708. It is not a coincidence that such a detailed map of a fortress was published in Paris. France was at war with

the Republic and England since 1702, while the objective was the Spanish Netherlands. Though the city was never besieged, capture of this military stronghold was seriously contemplated by the French.
