This finely engraved city plan shows Freiburg im Breisgau (Latin: Friburgum in Brisgaw), a fortified city in the Black Forest region, captured in 1677 by French Marshal de Créquy during the Franco-Dutch War. The map features meticulously drawn star-shaped fortifications, the city grid, and nearby fortresses. Text below the image describes the siege in both Dutch and Latin. The map was published in Amsterdam.

Petrus Schenk (1660–1713) was a Dutch engraver and map publisher active in the late 17th and early 18th centuries. Known for his precise urban views and engravings, he worked closely with Gerard Valck and continued the legacy of the great Dutch cartographic tradition. His works document the political and military

geography of his time.
