A museum located in Paris, housing some one hundred relief plans, presenting a vast program for the construction of fortifications
When Louis XIV wanted to protect the kingdom's borders, he launched a vast program to build fortifications, a project presented to the sovereign in the form of models. The first to be built was that of Dunkirk. The museum, created in 1943, houses around thirty of the hundred or so model plans it preserves - 260 in all were designed between 1668 and 1870. You don't need to be a military architecture enthusiast to visit this fascinating museum.
