The map
Sokolov lies on the Ohře river in the Karlovy Vary Region of western Bohemia. From above, the town centre sits along the river, with a château and old streets close to the water and larger housing estates on the surrounding slopes. Beyond the town, the map is dominated by the traces of lignite mining that shaped the region for more than a century.
Formerly known as Falkenau, the town grew with coal mining and industry. Open-cast mines transformed the landscape, and many former pits are now being restored as lakes, forests and recreational areas. The large lake created from the former Medard mine is one of the most visible examples of this transformation.
A Sokolov map poster shows an unusual combination: a historic riverside town surrounded by vast, geometric shapes of former mines, spoil heaps and new bodies of water. The Ohře's curves run through the centre of the composition, while the reclaimed landscape gives the edges a bold, almost abstract quality.
The river winds through the town centre, with the château and the old streets close to its banks and bridges connecting both sides.
Former open-cast pits have been flooded to form large new lakes, whose angular shapes stand out strongly on the map around the town.
Housing estates with long, regular blocks spread across the slopes above the river, forming geometric patterns around the historic core.

Why Sokolov
Sokolov's map tells a story of industry and renewal that local residents know well. It makes a meaningful piece for mining families, people who grew up in the estates, or anyone fascinated by landscapes that change over generations.
You can add your own title, subtitle and coordinates line, and choose from Classic black & white, Noir, Paper, Blueprint or Sand. Noir makes the new lakes appear dramatic against the dark ground.
