Hilltop old village
The historic village sits on a rocky rise, a compact knot of lanes that stands apart from the newer residential districts spread across the lower slopes around it.

The map
Les Pennes-Mirabeau is less a single town than a group of settlements. The old village holds a rocky height, while districts such as La Gavotte and Les Cadeneaux spread across the surrounding slopes and hollows. On the map this reads as a patchwork: pockets of streets separated by wooded hillsides, joined by roads that loop and bend around the terrain rather than running straight.
The commune lies just beyond the northern edge of Marseille in the Bouches-du-Rhône, and several major routes pass through it. Motorways and the railway draw long, deliberate lines across otherwise irregular ground. The large commercial zone of Plan de Campagne, which it shares with neighbouring Cabriès, appears as a block of broad parcels and open car parks unlike anything else nearby.
The hyphenated name hints at more than one place, and the geography confirms it: the hills pushed people to build in clusters wherever the ground allowed. A Les Pennes-Mirabeau map poster turns that dispersed pattern into a coherent composition, with the relief implied by the way streets curve around it and the old village keeping its position on the high point.
The historic village sits on a rocky rise, a compact knot of lanes that stands apart from the newer residential districts spread across the lower slopes around it.
Major roads heading north from Marseille cut through the commune in long, smooth curves, forming the strongest straight-ish lines on an otherwise meandering map.
This extensive commercial zone, shared with Cabriès, shows up as a grid of large rectangular plots and service roads, a striking contrast to the organic hamlets around it.

Why Les Pennes-Mirabeau
This is a map for people who know the place from the inside: which hamlet was home, which hill road led to school, where the village sits above everything else. The scattered shape makes an unusual, almost abstract print.
