The map
Béthune is a town in the Pas-de-Calais, in the Hauts-de-France region, on the edge of the former coalfield of northern France. Its centre is the Grand-Place and its medieval belfry, part of the group of belfries of Belgium and France inscribed on UNESCO's World Heritage List.
The map shows a clear concentric plan. The Grand-Place sits in the middle of a compact old town of short, closely set streets, surrounded by a ring of boulevards that follow the line of the former fortifications. Beyond that ring, streets radiate out to suburbs and former mining communities. A canal runs past the town, adding a long, straight line of water.
Béthune was heavily damaged in 1918 and largely rebuilt after the First World War, which is why its gabled façades have an Art Deco and regional look. A Béthune map poster shows the old town's layout, which survived that rebuilding.
The belfry stands on the central Grand-Place and is UNESCO-listed with other belfries of northern France and Belgium. It marks the exact centre of the map.
A ring of boulevards encloses the historic centre along the line of old fortifications. It gives the town a strong, almost circular outline from above.
A canal passes the town, and the former mining settlements spread around it. Together they reflect Béthune's industrial past as part of the northern coalfield.

Why Béthune
Béthune's ring and central square make it one of the most readable town plans in northern France, an easy map to recognise and a pleasure to hang. It suits people from the area, those with family connections to the coalfield, and visitors drawn to the belfries.
