What you can expect

The city's founder, Margrave Karl Wilhelm, dreamed of a modern and progressive residence. Today, 310 years later, Karlsruhe presents itself as a major city with a great deal of innovation and creativity. It is also the first and only German UNESCO Creative City in the field of media art!

Our city guides will take you on an exciting journey of discovery through Karlsruhe. Did you know, for example, that Karlsruhe's fan-shaped layout shaped the cityscape of Washington, D.C.? The KarlsTour is full of history and stories, plus plenty of funny anecdotes and personal insider tips from our guides.

In 2026, the anniversary year of the great Karlsruhe architect Friedrich Weinbrenner, the KarlsTour will take you past his classical buildings, which still shape the cityscape to this day. Discover how Weinbrenner's architecture made Karlsruhe unmistakable – and why his legacy lives on in modern urban planning.
