The map
About this Geneva map poster
Geneva sits at the southwestern tip of Lake Geneva, exactly where the Rhône flows out of the lake and heads toward France. On a map the lake narrows into a harbour and the river divides the city into two banks, joined by a series of bridges. The quays, parks and promenades along the shore trace a smooth curve on both sides of the water.
On the left bank, the old town climbs a hill topped by St Pierre Cathedral, where John Calvin preached during the Reformation. Its tightly packed, irregular streets contrast with the broader boulevards laid out after the old fortifications were removed in the nineteenth century. Out in the harbour, the Jet d'Eau sends a column of water high above the lake.
On the right bank, parkland rises toward the Palais des Nations, the European headquarters of the United Nations, and the International Committee of the Red Cross. Further downstream, the Arve joins the Rhône in a clearly visible meeting of two rivers. A Geneva map poster shows how much of this international city is still organised around a single body of water.

Old town hill
The cathedral quarter forms a compact knot of narrow, curving streets on high ground, distinct from the more regular nineteenth-century boulevards around it.
Lakefront quays
Promenades and parks follow both shores of the harbour, and the Jet d'Eau stands just off the left bank as a fixed point on the water.

Why Geneva
A map that means something
Many people come to Geneva for a posting, a degree or a diplomatic assignment, and often leave with a strong attachment to the city. A map of the lake, the river and the old town is a restrained way to keep those years in view.
Personalise the title and subtitle with a date, an organisation or a name, and edit the coordinates line. Choose Classic black and white, Noir, Paper, Blueprint or Sand. Then order a matte print from a partner near you, or download HD files in six sizes for $9.
