Detail of a map of the area between Fort Lorette and the mills’ dike, most likely drawn before 1750. At the top, we see the dike and the first mills. On the lower right, Fort Lorette and its buildings, among which is the chapel of the missionary outpost.

Detail of an anonymous and undated map of the sector between Fort Lorette and the mills’ dike. The first structures on the dike are represented, but not the parish church. Fort Lorette’s old chapel is still visible. This seems to indicate that the map was most likely drawn between 1726 and 1749.
