Bari Vecchia

On the wall



The map
Bari faces the Adriatic on the coast of Apulia, and its map shows two very different cities side by side. On a small promontory, Bari Vecchia is a maze of narrow alleys, tiny courtyards and dead ends, surrounded by sea walls. Directly south of it, the Murat district spreads out in a strict chessboard of straight streets, begun in 1813 under Joachim Murat.
The difference is easy to see from above. The old town looks like a knot, and the new town looks like graph paper. A Bari map poster puts both together, with the Norman-Swabian castle at the point where they meet. The Lungomare seafront curves away to the south and east along the water.
In the old town stands the Basilica of San Nicola, which holds relics of Saint Nicholas brought from Myra in 1087. It makes Bari a place of pilgrimage for both Catholic and Orthodox visitors. The port on the northern side receives ferries from across the Adriatic.
The medieval peninsula is a dense tangle of alleys enclosed by the sea on three sides. It is one of the most intricate old-town plans in southern Italy.
South of the old town, a rigorous nineteenth-century grid of parallel streets and even blocks gives the map its clean, measured rhythm.
A long seafront promenade curves along the coast and forms the city's smooth edge against the Adriatic, with the old harbour tucked beside it.

Why Bari
Bari's layout makes an ideal poster because it shows two centuries of planning in a single glance. People from Apulia, pilgrims and anyone who has caught a ferry from its port will recognise the peninsula straight away.
You can personalise the title and subtitle, for example with a wedding date, and use the coordinates line to mark a street in the old town. Then choose Classic black and white, Noir, Paper, Blueprint or Sand. Noir brings out the maze of Bari Vecchia well.
