Karlsruhe

A visit to Karlsruhe is only complete when you have visited Karlsruhe Palace with its extensive palace gardens. As the centre of the fan-shaped city, it was the residence and seat of government of the margraves, then the electors and grand dukes of Baden for around 200 years from its completion in 1718. Today, the building is home to the Baden State Museum, where, in addition to the permanent exhibition, there are changing exhibitions for those interested in culture. After visiting the museum, you can take a stroll through the palace park. Alternatively, you can simply explore the grounds on the palace garden railway. But Karlsruhe offers so much more, such as the Centre for Art and Media. It is one of the world’s most important art institutions. Together with the Städtische Galerie and the Staatliche Hochschule für Gestaltung, the ZKM is housed in a former munitions factory on Platz der Menschenrechte. In addition to produc t and research, you can visit changing exhibitions and events here, where interactivity is never neglected! Photos: Adobe Stock/Manuel Schönfeld
