From Heat Hotspots to Future Places: Experience Karlsruhe in the Climate Walk

Experience Karlsruhe in a climate-just way: A city tour between heat, shade, and future

This Climate Walk takes you deep into Karlsruhe's present and future: an interactive city tour that shows how heat, urban climate, and climate adaptation can be experienced directly in the urban space. The starting point is the Pyramid at the Marketplace; the event is part of the nationwide action week Week of Climate Adaptation and is free of charge.

Between Marketplace, Shade, and Urban History

At the meeting point Pyramid, Karlsruhe's city history meets current climate issues. The Marketplace with the Pyramid is one of the most famous places in the city; the Pyramid was built from 1823 to 1825 according to plans by Friedrich Weinbrenner over the crypt of the city's founder, Margrave Karl Wilhelm. Right here, the Climate Walk makes visible how closely building culture, quality of stay, and urban climate are interconnected.

Understanding Heat, Seeing Solutions

The tour links local challenges with very concrete answers: shade trees, drinking fountains, green roofs, and measures to alleviate heat-stressed neighborhoods. The city of Karlsruhe refers in its climate adaptation documents to de-sealing, greening, and upgrading public spaces as important building blocks for adapting to climate change.

Participating Instead of Just Listening

At several stations, there will be short inputs, participatory actions, and space for exchange. The walk is designed as a small discovery experience that connects local history, global responsibility, and practical everyday tips. A limited number of participants, a duration of 2.5 hours, and registration by email ensure a personal framework.
