City map of Gravelines from Toonneel der Steden.
Grevelines is a town in the north of France, in the French Westhoek. The municipality belongs to the Northern Département. Grevelingen is located on the Opal Coast, where the river Aa flows into the North Sea. For a long time, this river formed the border between France and the county of Flanders.
During the conquest of Gaul by the Romans, Grevelingen was a place of residence for the Morines. Spanish-Dutch troops under Count Lamoraal van Egmont defeated the French army here in 1558 at the Battle of Grevelingen, with the support of the English fleet. In 1644 Grevelingen fell into French hands.
