The climate of Karlsruhe (Germany)
Karlsruhe is located in the federal state of Baden-Württemberg and
modeled on Italian-Renaissance theories of the “ideal city”. From
the baroque / neoclassical Schloss, Karlsruhe's 32 streets radiate
like the spokes of a wheel. The city is very spacious with beautiful
gardens and parks. The Renaissance palace Gottesau is well worth
visiting as well as Karlsburg castle. Both castles are surrounded by
beautiful gardens. The center of the city is a square with a pyramid
which forms the center of the city. Karlsruhe has a maritime climate
with small differences in temperatures between the seasons. During
the summer only few days with warm weather can be recorded. During
the winter subzero temperatures may occur. However, longer periods
with subzero temperatures are uncommon. Precipitation figures are
highest during spring and fall. Especially in October and November
precipitation figures may be high.

More climate information
Climate figures are very useful but don’t present a general impression
of the climate and the eventual weather circumstances within a certain
period. The figures don’t always reflect the chance of wintry weather,
extreme heat or hurricanes. That is why we offer useful extra climate
information for each month of the year:
