I have always been interested in maps. I would spend a lot time as a young child documenting in detail on matrix printer paper the journey we would make as a family to Anglesey. I have never seen relief maps before, so I was quite blown away by these relief maps I saw last week in the Palais Des Beaux-Arts in Lille.

Take a look at the website www.fortified-places.com/reliefs/beauxarts.html for more detailed information regards their history.
