Orangerie, Art gallery in Karlsruhe, Germany.

The Orangerie is an art museum in Karlsruhe with distinctive domed architecture alongside the botanical garden. Its entrance is decorated with four statues representing the seasons.

The building was constructed by architect Heinrich Hübsch between 1853 and 1857, then reinforced with steel construction in 1870. This reinforcement made the structure more durable and stable.

The building displays modern art from the 20th and 21st centuries, including works by Paul Cézanne, Robert Delaunay, and Ernst Ludwig Kirchner. Visitors can trace the evolution of contemporary artistic movements directly through the exhibitions.

The exhibition space is located next to the Staatliche Kunsthalle on Hans-Thoma-Straße with direct access to the botanical garden. Visitors should allow time to explore both the building and the adjacent green space.

The lunettes contain allegorical paintings depicting four continents created with an innovative faience technique by porcelain painter Spelter. This detailed decoration demonstrates the artistic refinement of the 19th century.
