Carlsruhe is the capital of German justice.
This is the second largest city of the federal land of Baden-Württemberg. In fact, this is the capital of Baden, the locality where the people live, calling themselves Aleasan. Baden cuisine is the best in Germany, it is the most interesting and most expensive. The region around Karlsrue is called the Tigional Metropolis of the Upper Rhine. At the same time, its location is implied at the junction of three countries at once: France, Switzerland and Germany. The city is perfectly connected to all cities and towns, in Germany and next door.
The city of Karlsruhe was Posilly in the early 18th century on a certain plan and maybe therefore now it is considered a city with very convenient transport junctions. Architectural style of old Karlsruhe - Baroque. There are several magnificent buildings of the Geutrian era (about 1870). And quite a lot of classicism 19 keca. So architectural excursions in Karlsruhe are of course interesting.
In 1950-1951, the Supreme Court of Germany was moved to Karlsruhea, and its constitutional court. Since then, Karlsrue is called the "Residence of German Law". After them, the Federal Ministry of Justice and the Protection of Consumer Rights moved to the city. The ministry took no more nor less than the Palace of the Great Duke of Badensky, built in recent years of the 19th century. The ministry has an excellent fleet with a fountain, but alas ... For the public it is still closed partially. The Germans explain this to the apkhoda of terrorism, which is very of course convenient to officials. Karlsruhe found a modest shelter and all other senior German courts: the Federal Court of Labor Law, the Federal Court of Financial Law, the Federal Court of Social Law and the Federal Court of Administrative Right.
Of course the work of lawyers is very difficult, but Climate in Karlsruhe soft, sunny day . The population is 300 thousand inhabitants. For Germany, this is a lot. Unemployment in German standards is small: approx. 5%, 80% of the population is employed in the services sector. However, there is quite a lot of machine-building exercises around it.
What awaits tourist in Karlsruhe besides a good climate and good food? All the attractions of Karlsruhe can be divided into Two main directions: modern art and Baden times wars with Turks. Contemporary art in Baden in popularity is far beyond historical objects and most of the Germans arrive here. Foreigners are usually more interested in history.
Go, call or drive?
In the city of pleasant parks, the exhibition complex, university and several universities, good clinics. I will say that I will say right away: if you are interested in comfortable stay and water, then there is a Baden-Baden and the towns of Northern Schwarzvald. It is worth going here, but you should not stay. I can advise the same thing to fans of history. But if you are interested in the art of the 20th century, it is better to stay here at least for a week, and on the water or on historical excursions to leave here. I will try to clarify why. But usually staying in the city is approached by 1, 2 or 3 days.
1. Contemporary art.
Since 1997, the Arts and Multimedia Art Center (ZKM) has been working in Karlsruhe (ZKM) as part of two main attractions: Museum of New Arts and City Art Gallery . In the year they are visited by OK. 300 thousand people. The museum of new arts presents in addition to its own assembly and several private collections and today it is integrated into the city art gallery in the rebuilt building of the Armory Plant. This is also a former private collection, but is not shown in cooperation, but the city. It has a collection of engravings and the etchings of old masters, but most of the meeting are artists Neoexpressionists, postmodernists, avant-gardists. This is the history of the success of new trends in painting and the museum is interesting primarily for this. And this is definitely the most important tourist object in the city!
2. Castle, museums and gallery are the main historical objects.
Main important object in Karlsruhe is Badger Land Museum in Karlsruhe Castle . The museum divides some of the premises with the Constitutional Court and therefore not everyone is open to the public. Museum is a large ancient assembly, many exhibitions on cooperation with other museums. but The basis of the collection is military trophies of battles with Turks - Türkenboy Marcgraf Ludwig Wilhelm Badensky. This museum visits about 180 thousand.
Part of the collections is outside the palace as subsidiaries or his branches : Museum of music machines, Museum of brand with a collection of art starting from 1900 g, Museum of Ma'olika with a collection of the 20th century.
Outside Karlsruhe in Breslau there is a ceramics museum, with archaeological exhibits and a museum of shuffle with a collection of folk art. Noyenburg Castle inspires the Gauf's fairy tale. Cold Mersentk, and Hirsau in Calcé life of monks. Another monastery museum in Salem is open from this year. The museum organizes many exhibitions on cooperation with the treachery museums of Baden and in general, as it were, is central.
City Gallery of Arts Also possesses a college of German, Dutch and French painting eight centuries. It is especially interesting for the collection of French and Dutch 17-18 Iargrafy Mary Louise. In a year, approximately 100 thousand visitors come here.
Castle with trophy collections, modern residence of the Constitutional Court
3. Pyramid as a symbol of the city of Karlsruhe and other interesting architectural objects.
Dorcene Prince Max - Villa Prince Badensky, the last Chancellor of the German Reich is now given to the city museum, the library and the museum of literature. This is a building in the style of the Gender era. In the castle Palace Gottesuee. Fucking the Higher School of Music, this is the castle of the Epocht Renaissance, the eastern part of the Old Town and the former territory of the Benedictine Monastery. Very interesting object of the founder of the city - Pyramid's grave From the sands of Charles Wilhelm directly on Marcplatz. When the church was demolished, then in 1823 in this unusual grave. This is the construction of the Rachiteor of the classicist Friedrich Vaiebrener. He built a lot in Carlsrue. The Rathaus buildings are preserved (urban town hall, St. Stephen's Catholic Church, Evangelical, Dvor Markgraphs in which today is a bank, a mint and quite a few objects.
In general, there is everything in Karlsree, but the Baden himself is so interesting, then you can go further. To linger for a long time I advise here only to lovers of contemporary art.
4. For children
The city has a museum of natural history and a zoo .. The Museum of Natural History Like Many Museums of this kind rose from the collections of curiosities (Kunstkamera). In the year it is visited by OK. 160 thousand, which is a lot. The list of this is naturally not exhausted.
