Arms of the Somme
The river divides into several channels and canals through town, drawing fine parallel waterlines crossed by short bridges in the old centre.

The map
Abbeville lies in the Somme valley in Picardy, about twenty kilometres upstream from the Baie de Somme. The river splits into several arms and canals as it passes through town, so the old centre is laced with water. Streets cross it by short bridges, and the valley floor to the north-west opens into wet meadows and ponds. Low chalk slopes rise on either side.
The town's landmark is the Collégiale Saint-Vulfran, a Flamboyant Gothic church whose tall facade survived heavy bombing in May 1940 that destroyed much of the historic centre. The rebuilt town kept its medieval street plan in many places. Abbeville is also remembered for the Chevalier de La Barre, executed here in 1766, a case Voltaire made famous.
An Abbeville map poster shows a river town at a small scale. The divided channels of the Somme run through the centre, curving boulevards trace older boundaries, and the valley meadows open toward the coast. In black and white, the water becomes the thread that ties the composition together.
The river divides into several channels and canals through town, drawing fine parallel waterlines crossed by short bridges in the old centre.
Streets gather around the collegiate church at the heart of the town, where the rebuilt centre still follows much of its older street plan.
Beyond the town, wet meadows, ponds and drainage channels spread across the valley floor toward the Baie de Somme.
