The map
Castro Map Poster & Print
Castro is the capital of Chiloé Province, on the eastern side of Chiloé Island in southern Chile. It sits on a hill above a long, sheltered inlet, and from above the town spreads across the slopes, with streets descending toward the water. The irregular coastline of the inlet, with its small bays and points, gives the map a strong and distinctive shape.
Founded in 1567, Castro is one of the oldest towns in Chile. It is known for its palafitos, wooden houses built on stilts along the shore, and for the Church of San Francisco, a large wooden church on the main square that forms part of the UNESCO-listed churches of Chiloé. Both are closely tied to the island's tradition of timber building.
A Castro map poster captures a town shaped by water and slope: the sweeping lines of the inlet, the central square near the waterfront and the streets rising behind it. In black and white, the coastline dominates and the rows of palafitos appear as fine marks along the shore. It is a map for travellers and for anyone with ties to Chiloé.

Why Castro
A map that means something
