Detail of the copy of the French Maquette of Maastricht on display in Centre Céramique, Maastricht, the Netherlands. The copy was made in 1974-1982, based on the mid-18th-century scale model made for King Louis XV of France. This section shows the northern city wall near the river Meuse and the so-called "Biesen Bastion", which was situated near Nieuwen Biesen, the local commandery of the Teutonic Knights (in the background).
