Canals and channels

Tabula
Montargis is often called the Venice of the Gâtinais, and its map shows why. The Loing river passes through the town, the Briare canal ends here and the Loing canal begins. Narrow channels run through the old town and divide it into small blocks of houses and gardens. From above, water and streets run side by side, crossed again and again by short bridges.
Above the lower town, a hill carries what remains of the château of Montargis, once a royal residence, with medieval streets spreading down toward the water. The old centre curves, while the canals, built for barge traffic between the Loire and the Seine, run in straighter lines. Together they give the plan an unusual layered quality.
The town is also known as the birthplace of the praline, the caramelised almond said to have been created here in the seventeenth century by the cook of the Duke of Plessis-Praslin. A Montargis map poster shows the watery heart of the town in fine detail. The pattern reads especially well at larger sizes such as 50×70 cm or A2.
Narrow waterways run between the houses of the old town and break it into a patchwork of small islands. Few French towns of this size have a street pattern like it.
Dozens of footbridges and road bridges cross the channels. They turn the centre into a fine web of short crossings that gives the map much of its texture.
The rising ground of the former royal château sits above the lower town. Its grounds and approach streets form a distinct, rounder shape against the straight canals below.

Cur Montargis
Montargis appeals to anyone who knows the Loiret, who has travelled the French canals by boat, or who likes a town plan full of water. Its interlaced channels make a composition that feels both historic and graphic, and it fits as easily in a kitchen as in a study.
