The map
About this Zwolle map poster
Zwolle, the capital of Overijssel, has one of the most recognisable city outlines in the Netherlands. Its medieval centre is enclosed by a canal that follows the zigzag line of former bastions, creating a clear star shape on the map. Inside, the streets are compact and irregular, typical of an old Hanseatic trading town.
Landmarks include the Sassenpoort, a fifteenth-century city gate, and the tall church tower known as the Peperbus. Around the moat, parks and green strips follow the old fortifications, and the city has grown outward into later districts, with the IJssel river to the west and the Vecht to the north.
A Zwolle map poster puts that star-shaped centre at the heart of the composition, surrounded by rings of later growth and crossed by waterways. It is one of those rare maps where a city's history is visible at a glance.

Sassenpoort gate
The surviving medieval gate stands on the southern side of the old town, marking one of the historic routes into the fortified centre.
IJssel and Vecht
Two rivers pass on the western and northern sides of the city, adding broad water and floodplain to the edges of the map.
