Karlsruhe

Go on a car holiday in Germany with Risskov and drive yourself to Southern Germany. Visit the young city of Karlsruhe, located just northwest of Stuttgart. Karlsruhe is known for its magnificent castle in the centre, from which avenues and streets radiate like a fan. The city, which first emerged in 1715, was unlike other German cities an open and liberal city that was not hidden away behind great walls. Visit the market square, where you'll find both the town church and the town hall. Around the square you'll find cosy beer gardens and restaurants from where you can keep up with city life. The city is also full of green spaces. Take a walk in the botanical gardens, the palace gardens or the zoo. Find cheap and child-friendly hotels in the area and go exploring in the beautiful area.
