Village core
The old centre around the church keeps a small, irregular street pattern, clearly different from the larger planned blocks that surround it on all sides.

The map
About this Alcorcón map poster
Alcorcón lies a short distance southwest of Madrid, one of the towns that grew fastest during the metropolitan expansion of the 1960s and 1970s. Before that it was a small village known for its potters, who made water jugs and cooking vessels from local clay. On the map the old village core is still visible as a small knot of irregular streets within a much larger planned city.
Around that core lie large residential districts of apartment blocks arranged in regular patterns, with generous open spaces between them. A striking landmark is the Castillos de San José de Valderas, a twentieth-century building in the style of a castle that is now used for cultural events. The city also hosts a campus of the Universidad Rey Juan Carlos.
An Alcorcón map poster shows the order of a planned suburb softened by parks and history. The dense blocks, the old centre, the ring of motorways and the green areas on the outskirts create a composition that is both geometric and varied. It suits residents, former students and anyone who has made a home on the southwest side of Madrid.

Valderas district

Motorway frame

Why Alcorcón
A map that means something
Alcorcón is where many families settled when they moved to Madrid, and where their children grew up. A map of its streets and parks makes a thoughtful gift for anyone who knows the city well, or a personal marker of home.
Personalise the title, subtitle and coordinates line with a name, a neighbourhood or a date, and choose one of five styles: Classic black & white, Noir, Paper, Blueprint or Sand. Blueprint emphasises the planned geometry of the blocks.
