Karlsruhe Palace, Cultural heritage monument in Karlsruhe, Germany

The palace features a central tower with 32 streets radiating outward, creating a geometric pattern that defines the entire city layout.

Margrave Charles III William of Baden-Durlach commissioned the construction of this palace in 1715 following disputes with residents of his former capital.

The Badisches Landesmuseum within the palace walls displays regional artifacts and historical collections that represent Baden-Württemberg's past through exhibitions.

The palace museum opens daily except Mondays, with guided tours available in multiple languages and special rates for students and senior visitors.

The palace's architectural design influenced the entire urban development of Karlsruhe, with streets extending from the central tower like spokes of a wheel.
