Short Introduction to the Area of Study
Durlachs‘ Schlossgarten is the oldest garden-park in the city of Karlsruhe. This garden belonged to the Karlsburg castle, which was a landmark of the old emperors of Baden since 1563, when Markgraf Karl II moved his residence to Durlach. Firstly, a renaissance-style garden was built, which then experienced major replanning since the Baroque until today. Since fall 1964 the garden has belonged to the city of Karlsruhe, with redevelopment was started. A new lapidary has been built, in the place which had been an outhouse. The Schlossplatz was originally a part of the garden and works today as a community square where recreational events are held. It was conceived in such way, that the usable area is kept the biggest as possible, with only a single fountain as decoration.
I myself have been using this place for three years, since it’s very close to where I live. It is personally quite interesting to analyse such a place, which lies in the center of a town and was planned and thought for its inhabitants, since in my homeland Japan such places are very scarce, but in my opinion urgently needed.
