About this Pilsen map poster
Pilsen, Plzeň in Czech, grew up where four rivers meet: the Mže, Radbuza, Úhlava and Úslava. Below the city they join to form the Berounka. From above, their curving valleys divide the city into sections and bring green strips deep into its centre. In the middle is the medieval old town, laid out in the 13th century as a clear grid of streets around one very large square.
The old town walls were replaced by a ring of parks and avenues, and on a map this shows as a green frame around the historic grid. On the main square stands the Cathedral of St Bartholomew, whose spire is the tallest church tower in the Czech Republic. East of the centre is the brewery where pale Pilsner lager was first brewed in 1842. The large Škoda works, founded here, spread out along the rivers.
A Pilsen map poster shows the city's ordered medieval core and the four winding rivers around it. The regular grid inside its park ring sits at the centre, while the river valleys curve outward and the housing districts extend up the surrounding slopes. It is a well-balanced composition for anyone who studied, worked or lived in the city, and for anyone who simply likes a good beer.

Ring of parks
Parks and avenues built where the town walls once stood surround the old town in a green band that is easy to see on the map.
Four rivers
The Mže, Radbuza, Úhlava and Úslava wind through the city before they merge. Their valleys give Pilsen its branching outline.
