Routine ultraviolet imaging of the Sun's upper atmosphere shows the spectacular manifestation of solar activity - yet, we remain blind to its main driver, the magnetic field. Here, we report unprecedented spectropolarimetric observations of an active region plage and its surrounding enhanced network, showing circular polarization in ultraviolet (Mg II h & k and Mn I) and visible (Fe I) lines. We infer the longitudinal magnetic field from the photo-sphere to the very upper chromosphere. At the top of the plage chromosphere, the field strengths reach more than 300 G, strongly correlated with the Mg II k line core intensity and the electron pressure. This unique mapping shows how the magnetic field couples the different atmospheric layers and reveals the magnetic origin of the heating in the plage chromosphere.
