At a central location, only a few steps away from Karlsruhe's market square, you will find the Museum at Market Square, located in a former publishing house. The museum is part of the Badisches Landesmuseum and has been dedicated to the applied arts since 1900.
Outstanding works by leading artists, artisans and designers are displayed over an area of 1,600 square metres, creating a bridge from the early 20th century to the present day.
