Historic centre
The old town is a tight network of narrow, winding lanes lined with earthen houses. It is the most intricate part of the print, dense with small shapes.

The map
About this Agadez map poster
Agadez sits on the southern edge of the Sahara in northern Niger. From above, the old town is an irregular maze of narrow lanes and closed courtyards, built from earth and laid out without a grid. Newer, more regular neighbourhoods surround it, and beyond them the desert begins with almost no transition.
For centuries the town was a hub of trans-Saharan trade and an important Tuareg centre. Its historic centre has been on the UNESCO World Heritage list since 2013. The mud-brick minaret of the Grand Mosque, around 27 metres tall, is the tallest structure of its kind and the symbol of the city.
An Agadez map poster captures a desert town where the shape of the streets reflects centuries of trade, climate and custom. The dense organic core, the more ordered districts around it and the empty ground beyond make a striking contrast, and the print reads almost like a woven textile.

Grand Mosque
The mosque and its tall mud-brick minaret stand in the old town. It is the point the historic streets are oriented around and the town's best-known landmark.
Desert edge
Past the outer neighbourhoods the map opens into desert with only scattered tracks. That empty space frames the town and makes it feel like an island.
