The map
About this Prato map poster
Prato lies northwest of Florence on the plain of the Bisenzio river, where the valley opens out from the Apennine foothills. The historic centre is enclosed by medieval walls that form a distinctive hexagonal outline, one of the clearest old-town shapes in Tuscany. Outside the walls, the city spreads across the plain in a looser mix of residential streets, industrial districts and ring roads.
The city has been a centre of textile production since the Middle Ages, and cloth-making still defines its economy. It is also home to one of the largest Chinese communities in Italy, largely linked to the garment industry. The cathedral has an external pulpit carved by Donatello and Michelozzo, and the Castello dell'Imperatore was built for Frederick II.
A Prato map poster shows the hexagon of the old walls at the heart of the composition, with the Bisenzio curving along its eastern side. Beyond the walls, broad avenues and factory blocks fill the plain, while the hills rise to the north, giving the map a clear sense of place.

Bisenzio river
The Bisenzio flows south along the eastern side of the old town, a slender line of water that separates the historic core from the districts across the river.
Textile districts
Around the walled centre, larger industrial blocks and warehouses reflect Prato's cloth and garment trade, adding a coarser texture to the street pattern on the plain.

Why Prato
A map that means something
Prato is a place with a strong identity of its own, not just a satellite of Florence. A map of the walled hexagon and the textile plain makes a thoughtful piece for anyone with family ties, business roots or travel memories here.
