TITLE/CONTENT OF MAP: 'La Haute Gueldres ou se trouvent les environs de Gueldres, Venlo, et Ruremonde'

The map shows part of the Meuse/Maas valley with adjacent country in present-day Netherlands and North Rhine-Westphalia. A projected canal (the Fossa Eugeniana) intended to link the Meuse at Venlo to the Rhine at Rheinberg via Geldern is indicated; the canal was never completed.
