Thank you so much Thomas. I'll poke around some more and keep these suggestions in mind.

As of now I cannot point you in the direction of the larger map but some elements I noticed might help date it.
Hello all,
I have a map that appears to be a portion from a larger map. The map was given the date 1704 with a question mark though that may be off.

Dear all,
In Petrus Schenk's Schouwburg van den Oorlog is a fortification plan of Haguenau (northern Alsace) of 1705 (plate 6, first copperplate). However, the town is not Haguenau. Schenk realised this and made a second copperplate with the correct plan of Haguenau.
Characteristic is that the town is on one side of a river, with some fortifications on the other side. The canals inside the fortification have also a characteristic pattern (first illustration).
Haguenau is not on a major river, as the correct plan (second illustration) shows.
The orientation is unknown, and it is
