On the wall



The map
Bergamo is really two cities. The Città Alta, the medieval upper town, sits on a hill ringed by Venetian walls, and its tightly packed streets are enclosed within a clear, fortified outline. Below it, the Città Bassa spreads out across the plain with broader avenues, squares and a more regular layout that grew mostly in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries.
The walls, built by the Venetian Republic in the sixteenth century, are part of a UNESCO World Heritage listing and are easy to trace on the map as a thick, angular ring. A funicular climbs from the lower town to the upper one, and a second continues higher to San Vigilio. To the north the land rises into the foothills of the Alps.
Bergamo is the birthplace of the composer Gaetano Donizetti, and Piazza Vecchia at the heart of the upper town is one of Italy's finest squares. A Bergamo map poster shows both halves of the city at once, the walled hilltop and the open plain below.
The sixteenth-century bastions wrap around the Città Alta in a bold, angular ring, the most recognisable shape on any map of Bergamo.
The medieval hilltop's narrow lanes sit directly above the broader, more regular streets of the Città Bassa, two distinct textures in one frame.
North of the old town the streets give way to winding roads climbing into the hills, softening the top of the composition.

Why Bergamo
Bergamo is a city many visitors reach by plane and then fall for, climbing into the upper town for the first time. A map of its walls and two levels keeps that memory in a restrained form that suits any room.
Add your own title, a subtitle such as a travel date, and a coordinates line. Choose from Classic black & white, Noir, Paper, Blueprint or Sand. Paper sets off the old walls especially well.
