Jerusalem Wall Map - Published 1996 by National Geographic

Jerusalem — National Geographic Wall Map (1996)

A city of memory, faith, and living streets. Published in April 1996, this comprehensive Jerusalem wall map weaves a brief history, a chronological timeline, and maps of key periods into a clear portrait of one of the world’s most storied places—culminating in a modern view of the city’s neighbourhoods, landmarks, and sacred sites. Issued alongside “Jerusalem: The Old City” and the article “The Three Faces of Jerusalem,” it balances scholarship and accessibility to command a wall from across the room and reward close study at arm’s length.

More Than a Map – A Testament to Jerusalem

This isn’t just wall art—it’s a frame for understanding Jerusalem across time. Sequential period maps, concise narrative, and a clean contemporary plan make it easy to trace how eras, empires, and communities shaped the city we know today. Ideal for educators, historians, designers, travellers, and collectors, it pairs beautifully with other National Geographic titles on the Middle East and the Mediterranean.

Hang it in studios, libraries, classrooms, museums, offices, or at home to invite reflection, study, and conversation.
