Discover the Heritage and Contemporary Lifestyle of Karlsruhe

Karlsruhe Palace was originally built as a summer residence for Margrave Karl Wilhelm during the 18th century. From here, the city of Karlsruhe developed around it, in its iconic fan shape. Inside the palace is the Badisches Landesmuseum (Baden State Museum), which presents 50,000 years of international cultural history.
You can park your car just across the square at Parkgarage Schlossplatz.
Ticket information can be found at the Badisches Landesmuseum website.
