The map
About this Sobral map poster
Sobral is the main city of north-western Ceará, set on the Acaraú River in the dry backlands known as the sertão. The river curves along the edge of the centre, and a landscaped riverside park has turned the waterfront into one of the defining features of the map. To the north-west, the green ridge of the Serra da Meruoca rises above the flat, open plain.
The historic centre, protected as national heritage, keeps a grid of eighteenth- and nineteenth-century streets with churches, squares and a theatre from the period when Sobral grew prosperous on cattle and cotton. Around it, newer districts spread in wider blocks, with university campuses and industrial areas on the outskirts and main roads leaving toward Fortaleza and the interior.
Sobral holds a notable place in the history of science: during the total solar eclipse of 29 May 1919, British astronomers photographed stars here to test Einstein's general theory of relativity, and the results helped confirm it. A museum marks the event. A Sobral map poster honours a sertão city where the river, the old grid and a piece of scientific history meet.

Heritage centre
The protected historic core keeps a compact grid of colonial-era streets and squares, where churches and the old theatre anchor the densest part of the map.
Serra da Meruoca
A green ridge rises north-west of the city above the dry plain, framing the map with higher ground beyond the edge of the built-up area.

Why Sobral
A map that means something
For people from Sobral, the river, the old squares and the eclipse story are sources of real pride. A map of the city is a way to carry that home, and its combination of curving water and straight colonial streets makes an elegant print.
