History and Architecture at the Square
Around Gutenberg Square, visitors encounter an urban ensemble with character. Particularly defining are the Krautkopf Fountain from 1905 to 1908, as well as other historical traces like the metal dome of a advertising column from 1901 and the old public conveniences from around 1910. The square thus tells not only of shopping but also of the transformation of the Weststadt. ([guide.karlsruhe.de](https://guide.karlsruhe.de/db/guide-de/gutenbergplatz))
