River border
The Lys separates Belgium and France here, and on the poster it runs as a gentle line between two towns that effectively form one.

About this Menen map poster
Menen lies in West Flanders on the Lys, known in Dutch as the Leie, which forms the border between Belgium and France here. From above, the town and its French neighbour Halluin run into one another, with the river and the border line drawn through the middle. The older centre sits close to the water, and streets fan out north toward the countryside.
The town was once fortified, with defences remodelled under Vauban in the seventeenth century, and traces of that shape can still be read in the curve of streets around the centre. Its name is also known worldwide through the Menin Gate in Ypres, which marks the road that led from there toward Menen.
A Menen map poster shows a place where a national border is just another line on the map. The Lys curves along the southern edge, streets cross into France without pause, and the old centre stands out as a tight core. It is a compelling print for people from the area and for anyone interested in border towns.

Fortress outline
Menen's past as a fortified town, reworked under Vauban, still shows in the rounded shape of streets around the historic centre.
Menin Gate road
The Menin Gate in Ypres is named after the road to Menen, a link that gives the town a place in First World War memory.

Why Menen
