About this Sortavala map poster
Sortavala lies in Karelia on the northern shore of Lake Ladoga, Europe's largest lake. The shoreline here is broken into bays, skerries and rocky islands, and the town wraps around a deep inlet. From above, the streets bend around granite hills and water, so the plan feels irregular and closely tied to the landscape.
Before the Second World War the town belonged to Finland, and it still has buildings from that period, including Finnish National Romantic and Nordic Classicist architecture. Today it is the main starting point for trips to the Valaam archipelago and its monastery, reached by boat across the lake.
A Sortavala map poster is dominated by water and rock. The lake and its fragmented shore take up much of the frame, and the town's streets form a smaller cluster between them. It is a quiet, northern print with strong contrasts.

Harbour inlet
A deep bay reaches into the town, and the centre gathers around it, with piers serving boats to Valaam.
Granite hills
Rocky outcrops and forested hills interrupt the streets, forcing roads to bend around the landscape.

Why Sortavala
A map that means something
Sortavala draws people with Finnish family roots, travellers bound for Valaam and those who love the northern lakes. A map of its shoreline suits a cabin, study or any calm, uncluttered room.
Add your own title, a subtitle and an edited coordinates line. Choose Classic black & white, Noir, Paper, Blueprint or Sand. Noir renders Ladoga as a deep, dark mass, beautiful against the granite islands.
