Strait of Messina
The water fills one side of the poster and gives the city its long, straight coastline, with the approach to Sicily just across a narrow channel.

The map
Reggio Calabria stretches along the eastern shore of the Strait of Messina, at the very tip of the Italian mainland. From above, the city is a long, narrow band between the sea and the foothills of the Aspromonte, with Sicily and Messina visible directly across the strait.
After the earthquake of 1908 destroyed much of the city, the centre was rebuilt on a regular grid of straight streets parallel to the shore. A Reggio Calabria map poster shows that order clearly, with Corso Garibaldi running through the middle and the Lungomare Falcomatà, a seafront promenade with gardens, lining the water.
The National Archaeological Museum of Magna Graecia, home to the Riace Bronzes, sits at the northern end of the centre. Beyond the grid, streets climb in curves and zigzags up steep ridges cut by dry riverbeds, the fiumare, that run down from the mountains to the sea.
The water fills one side of the poster and gives the city its long, straight coastline, with the approach to Sicily just across a narrow channel.
The centre's regular blocks and parallel streets were planned after the earthquake, making the core one of the most orderly shapes on the map.
Wide dry riverbeds descend from the Aspromonte and divide the hillside districts, their pale, straight courses cutting across the winding upper streets.

Why Reggio Calabria
Reggio is where the mainland ends and Sicily begins, and the view of the strait is part of its identity. A map poster turns that shoreline into a clean, graphic line that works in almost any room.
Set the title, a subtitle such as a family surname or wedding date, and the coordinates line. Choose one of five styles, preview it for free, then download HD files or order a matte print.
