Summary
[edit]
| Description |
English: 18th century Cassini map of France, detail, in the present Nièvre departement, Burgundy. Centered on Saint-Laurent abbey (fr) located here just beside Saint-Martin-du-Tronsec, some 6 mi (~10 km) S-E of Cosne-sur-Loire (just beyond the upper left corner of the picture). The Loire river runs near the left margin of the map, south-north direction, so we are mainly looking at the right bank of the river. The "road (from Paris) to Lyon through the Bourbonnais" is in between the abbey and the port, about 3 mi (4,6 km) away. Other towns and villages: Saint-Quentin (Saint-Quentin-sur-Nohain) and Suilly-la-Tour (East), Saint-Andelain (South), Tracy (S-W) and part of the name of Ménétréol (Ménétréol-sous-Sancerre) facing Tracy on the left bank of the Loire. Tracy, small port on the Loire river, is some 4.4 mi (7 km) west to the abbey.
Français : Carte de Cassini (XVIIIe s.), détail, dans le nord-est du département de la Nièvre, en Bourgogne. Carte centrée sur l'abbaye Saint-Laurent-les-Cosne à Saint-Laurent-l'Abbaye, juste à côté de Saint-Martin-du-Tronsec, à ~10 km au sud-est de Cosne-sur-Loire. Le nom de "St Laurent" est suivi des lettres "A.H.O.A.", pour "Abbaye d'Hommes Ordre Augustin" (voir ici). La Loire, coulant du sud au nord, est indiquée sur le côté gauche (ouest) de la carte - cette dernière couvrant donc essentiellement la rive droite du fleuve. Autres villages : Saint-Quentin (Saint-Quentin-sur-Nohain) et Suilly-la-Tour (à l'est), Saint-Andelain (sud), Tracy (S-O) et une partie du nom de Ménétréol face à Tracy en rive gauche de la Loire (dans le coin en bas à gauche de l'image). Tracy, petit port sur la Loire, est à 7 km à l'ouest. La "route de (Paris à) Lyon par le Bourbonnais" traverse la carte du nord au sud et passe à 4,5 km à l'est de l'abbaye. |
