The map
Herstal lies directly downstream from Liège, on the Meuse. From above it is defined by water. The river and the Albert Canal run next to each other along the valley floor, with docks and industrial sites along their banks, while the residential streets climb the slopes to the plateau above.
The town has an old name. Pepin of Herstal, a Frankish ruler and great-grandfather of Charlemagne, is linked with it, and the Carolingians had an important residence here. In modern times Herstal is known worldwide as the home of FN Herstal, the arms manufacturer that shaped the town's industrial growth.
A Herstal map poster shows the tight layering of this valley: river, canal, rail, industry and hillside housing, all in a narrow band. It is a dense, strongly horizontal image that suits people who like maps with structure and a story.
The river and the Albert Canal run in parallel through the valley. They form a double line of water across the whole map.
Large factory and port sites fill the flat ground along the water. Their blocky shapes stand apart from the housing above.
Residential streets climb the valley sides in winding lines, rising toward the plateau above the Meuse.

Why Herstal
Herstal is a town of work, family and the river, often closely linked with Liège. A map of it suits anyone who grew up here, worked at the factories or still crosses the Meuse every day.
You can add a title in French or English, a subtitle and your own coordinates line. The poster comes in five styles: Classic black & white, Noir, Paper, Blueprint and Sand.
