About Karlsruhe
Karlsruhe is one of the most distinctively planned cities in Germany — founded in 1715 by Margrave Karl Wilhelm of Baden-Durlach, the city was laid out as a perfect fan of 32 radiating avenues originating from the central tower of the baroque Karlsruhe Palace, creating a city plan that was studied and admired across 18th-century Europe and influenced the design of Washington D.C. The palace, rebuilt after WWII damage, now houses the Baden State Museum with its extraordinary collections of classical antiquities, medieval art and Baden regional history. The Federal Constitutional Court (Bundesverfassungsgericht) — Germany's supreme court and one of the most important judicial institutions in Europe — is based in Karlsruhe, giving the city its designation as Germany's 'city of law'.
Karlsruhe's cultural life is concentrated around the remarkable ZKM (Zentrum für Kunst und Medientechnologie) — the Centre for Art and Media Technology, one of the world's most important institutions for digital and media art, housed in a former munitions factory and presenting cutting-edge exhibitions of art in all digital and electronic forms. The Staatliche Kunsthalle (State Art Gallery) houses an important collection of German and European painting from the 15th to 20th centuries. The city is also the home of the Karlsruher Institut für Technologie (KIT), one of Germany's leading research universities, and the surrounding Black Forest and Rhine plain give it excellent access to outstanding natural landscapes.
Important Transfer Information
Fan-Shaped City Plan: Karlsruhe's unique radial city plan — 32 avenues radiating from the palace tower like the spokes of a wheel — is still clearly legible in the city's street pattern today and gives Karlsruhe its distinctive character among German baroque cities. The palace tower (Schloßturm) at the plan's centre is visible from the end of all major avenues and the view from the tower over the fan of the city is the finest way to understand the unique urban geometry.
ZKM Media Arts Centre: The ZKM Karlsruhe is one of the world's most important institutions for digital and media art — an extraordinary combination of museum, research institute and production centre housed in a vast former munitions factory. Exhibitions range from interactive digital installations to the history of electronic art and music. One of the most stimulating cultural venues in Germany.
Federal Constitutional Court: The Bundesverfassungsgericht — Germany's Federal Constitutional Court — is based in Karlsruhe and is one of the most powerful and respected constitutional courts in the world. The court's landmark judgements on European law, digital rights and constitutional questions have shaped German and European society for decades. A visitors' gallery allows observation of public hearings.
