The map
About this Hamar map poster
Hamar lies on the eastern shore of Mjøsa, Norway’s largest lake, in the farming district of Hedmarken. The centre is a tidy grid of streets running down towards the water, laid out when Hamar was refounded as a trading town in the nineteenth century. On a map the most striking element is the lake itself, a wide shape that fills much of the frame and gives the shoreline a long, gentle curve.
West of the centre, the Domkirkeodden headland holds the ruins of the medieval cathedral, protected since the late 1990s by a large glass structure. Hamar was a bishop’s seat in the Middle Ages before the old town declined. To the south the wetlands of Akersvika spread across a shallow bay, and near them stands Vikingskipet, the hall built for speed skating at the 1994 Winter Olympics.
A Hamar map poster balances land and water with unusual elegance: the grid of the town, the railway along the shore, the long curved roof of the arena and the open lake beyond. It is a calm, spacious map that works especially well in the lighter styles, while still holding its detail in the darker ones.

Vikingskipet
The Olympic speed skating hall sits by the southern edge of town. Its long, hull-shaped roof is one of the most recognisable modern buildings in Norway.
Akersvika bay
A shallow bay and nature reserve cut into the shore south of Hamar, drawing soft, irregular edges of reed and water between the town and the farmland.

Why Hamar
A map that means something
Hamar is a place of skating winters and light summer evenings by the lake, and many who studied or worked here keep it close. The map shows its generous shoreline and orderly streets with a quiet, spacious clarity.
Personalise the title, subtitle and coordinates, perhaps with a race result, a wedding date or simply the town’s name, and choose one of five styles: Classic black & white, Noir, Paper, Blueprint or Sand. Files come in six sizes, including 50×70 cm.
