About This Book

A combined local history and practical directory that opens with an editor’s address and a concise account of the city’s origins, situation, and municipal development. Statistical tables compare parish and hamlet populations across earlier censuses, while narrative sections describe prominent antiquities and landmarks such as the castle, cathedral, churches, bridges, walls, and gates. The directory furnishes alphabetized listings of inhabitants, streets, trades, public institutions, and charities, accompanied by an engraved plan and practical information for residents and visitors. Short sketches of local manufactures, commerce, and notable inhabitants complete a compact municipal portrait.
