The city was founded the city in 1715 by the Margrave Karl Wilhelm of Baden-Durlach, who also gave it its name.
The city was planned with the tower of the castle (Schloss) at the center and 32 streets radiating out from it like spokes on a wheel or ribs on a folding fan, giving it its nickname the "fan city" (Fächerstadt); it is also known as the “city in the green” (Stadt im Grünen) and as the city of Justice (Stadt des Recht); it is the seat of the German Federal Constitutional Court (Bundesverfassungsgericht) and the highest Court of Appeals in civil and criminal cases, the (Bundesgerichtshof.), the Karlsruhe University, was the first Technical University or Technische Hochschule (TH) in Germany)
The area north of the castle was and still is a park and forest. East of the castle there originally were gardens and more forest, some of which remain, but the Wildparkstadion Karlsruhe, and residential areas have since been built there.
The 49th parallel runs through the city center. Its course is marked by a line of flagstones in the Stadtgarten (city park). The ''Stadtgarten'' is a recreational area near the ''Hauptbahnhof'' (main railway station) and was rebuilt during the ''Bundesgartenschau'' (''Federal Garden Show'') in 1967. It is also the site of the Karlsruhe Zoo. One of the attractions of the ''Stadtgarten'' is the "Japanese Garden", a present from Japan to Karlsruhe on the year where Karlsruhe was holding the "Bundesgarten Show"

Rolf, la luz en el cenit produc unas sombras verticales que no son tan agradable a la vista. Estoy seguro que la misma composicion fotografiada a una hora distante produciria un efecto totalmente distinto. Saludos cordiales, Enrique
Der japanische Garten ist für mich genau richtig, wenn ich bei den Temperaturen zum Karlsruher Zoo gehe. Da findet sich immer ein Schattenplätzchen zum Verweilen...
