A detailed military plan of the Fortress of Kehl and its surrounding defensive works, illustrating the Austrian attacks during the Siege of Kehl (1796–1797) in the French Revolutionary Wars. Situated on the east bank of the Rhine opposite Strasbourg, Kehl was a strategically vital bridgehead that served as one of France's principal crossings into Germany.
The map depicts the layout of Fort Kehl, its bastions, fortifications, bridges, outworks, and supporting defenses, together with the Austrian siege lines, batteries, trenches, and principal avenues of attack. It provides a clear visual representation of the operations conducted during the prolonged siege, which followed the French campaigns of 1796 and culminated in the evacuation of the fortress by French forces in January 1797.
