Luxembourg Street Map Poster

Few capitals translate into a street map as dramatically as Luxembourg. The city sits on a rocky promontory split by the Alzette and Pétrusse valleys, so the plan view reveals roads tracing the clifftops while bridges leap across the gorges below. This printable poster captures that vertical geography in clean minimalist lines, with the Bock Casemates marking the spot where the original fortress once guarded the bend in the river.

At the heart of the map is the Ville Haute, the historic centre crowning the plateau, where Place Guillaume II opens up among the old streets and the Grand Duchy’s institutions cluster nearby. Trace the elegant sweep of the Adolphe Bridge as it spans the Pétrusse, then follow the contour lines down into the Grund, the riverside quarter tucked at the foot of the cliffs. North-east, the modern Kirchberg plateau spreads out with its European quarter and banking towers — a striking contrast to the medieval core.

As a city map, it works because the topography does so much of the design work: the compact old town reads almost like an island above the surrounding landscape. Printed and framed, this street map of Luxembourg makes characterful wall art for anyone who knows the Grand Duchy.
