Design a Stockholm Map Poster
Stockholm is built across 14 islands at the point where Lake Mälaren, Sweden's third-largest lake, narrows and drains into the Baltic Sea. This dramatic setting gives Stockholm extraordinary visual variety: water surrounds the city in every direction. Gamla Stan (Old Town), the founding island, contains one of the best-preserved medieval city centers in Scandinavia, with the Royal Palace (608 rooms, the world's largest still-used royal palace by room count) at its northern tip.
Stockholm — the city's layout
A custom map poster of Stockholm, Sweden turns a meaningful location into personalized wall art — completely free with MapPoster.
Stockholm is the Nordic region's largest city (1 million city, 2.4 million metro) and home to Nobel Prize ceremonies. The Stockholm Archipelago extends 80km into the Baltic, encompassing 30,000 islands and islets. Spotify, Ericsson, IKEA, and H&M are all Swedish companies headquartered near Stockholm. For a map poster, Stockholm's extraordinary island geography, urban fabric and water interwoven in an intricate lace pattern, creates one of Europe's most visually complex and beautiful maps. Soft grey-blue, ice white, or deep Scandinavian forest green tones celebrate this city's remarkable relationship with its extraordinary waterscape.
