The map
About this Ålesund map poster
Ålesund spreads across several islands on the coast of Møre og Romsdal, with fjords and mountains inland and the open sea to the west. On a map, water is everywhere: narrow sounds cut between Aspøya, Nørvøya and Hessa, and the town's streets follow long, thin strips of land.
In 1904 a fire destroyed most of the centre, and the town was rebuilt within a few years in the Art Nouveau style, which gives it a remarkably consistent look. Above the centre, the hill of Aksla provides a famous viewpoint reached by a long flight of steps. The town has a long history of fishing and dried-fish trade.
An Ålesund map poster brings out the fine canal of Brosundet running through the centre, the fragmented islands, and the bridges and tunnels linking them. The coastline is so detailed that even the simplest style makes a rich, delicate print.

Island town
The town is spread across narrow islands linked by bridges, so its outline is broken into long strips of land between channels.
Aksla hill
The hill above the centre, reached by a long stairway, is a green gap in the street pattern and the town's most famous viewpoint.
