Durlach: The Old Residence

by Kathrin_E - last update: Mar 28, 2008

Stadtkirche / protestant church and town hall
The suburb of Durlach is much older than Karlsruhe itself. The settlement was probably founded in the 12th century. In 1565 it became the residence of the Marggrave of Baden-Durlach, who moved here from Pforzheim and had the small castle replaced by a suitable palace.

The narrow streets with their old houses are worth a stroll. Durlach has got the old, romantic lanes Karlsruhe is lacking. Pubs and cafes invite to stay and enjoy a little dolce vita.

 Great page on Karlsruhe, Kathrin. The Schloss reminds me of the one in Oldenburg. Sehr gelb!

 Ich habe die Skulpturen gefunden, eine sehr interessante Zusammenstellung. Vielen Dank.

 Great updates :-))) I laughed much about the sex in the city fountain - missed that during my trip :-)) And the sculptures are beautiful - interesting one about a NH3 reactor! Oh, the sculpture album is fantastic! I really missed it last time :-(
