The city in beautiful Baden-Wuerttemberg got famous for its Federal Court and its Constitutional Court. But Karlsruhe has many other attractions up its sleeve: With its unique fanlike ground plan visitors can easily reach attractions by foot, such as Karlsruhe Palace, the market square with the pyramid as the city’s symbol or the many street festivals and open air concerts. The city itself is a guarantee for success with regard to future football stars: sportsmen like Oliver Bierhoff, Mehmet Scholl and Oliver Kahn for example, have all been born in Karlsruhe. Even more exciting, though, is how the city got its name! We find the story inspiring for anyone who likes a refreshing afternoon nap but don’t want to reveal too much.
