the plan on the floor


This is the entrance of the Arsenaal, a historical and multifunctional building in the centre of Coevorden. Inside are the library, tourist info and museum. The image on the floor here shows the star shaped fortification plan of Coevorden, this is how the city looked like at the end of the 16th century.
When you would take a view from the sky on the city today, some parts of the star shape can still be seen.
