This map from Beskrovni's Atlas depicts the second siege of Narva. While Charles XII was busy against the Saxons, Peter returned to Narva with a more experienced and stronger force. The city was left to its own defenses and Peter captured it. Note that the Swedes then held both Narva and Ivangorod fortress across the Narva river.
