However, the proposed solutions did not efficiently meet the specified terms of reference. As a result, a further architectural competition, now in two stages, was announced in 2017. The first construction phase required plans to realise a programme of refurbishing and restructuring the historic main building, while the second stage now comprised an idea competition on how to expand the Kunsthalle to the neighbouring Amtsgericht (district court) site.<\/p>\n<p>In 2018, Staab Architekten was announced as the winner of the competition. This Berlin-based architectural office has already made its name in museum architecture with acclaimed projects for the LWL-Landesmuseum f\u00fcr Kunst und Kulturgeschichte in M\u00fcnster, the Albertinum in Dresden, and the Jewish Museum in Frankfurt am Main.<\/p>\n<p>Kunsthalle Karlsruhe\u2019s refurbishment and expansion was included in the Baden-W\u00fcrttemberg government&#8217;s coalition agreement as an important construction project. The ground-breaking ceremony for Kunsthalle Karlsruhe\u2019s first construction phase took place in June 2024. Once construction site preparation was completed, work began on securing the site, dismantling technical installations and systems, and building remediation.<\/p>\n<p>Before the civil and structural engineering work began in mid-2025, non-supporting walls, surface shafts, wall surfaces or suspended ceilings throughout the entire building were dismantled.<\/p>\n<p>The Orangery is also undergoing refurbishment and will be reopened in a series of steps. In late summer 2025, one finished section was opened to host the Room to Grow cultural festival. When work is completed, the Orangery in the Botanic Garden will become a multifunctional space for exhibitions, performances, concerts and events, a place welcoming all visitors whether they are planning to view an exhibition or not.<\/p>\n<p>After being closed for several years, the Orangery\u2019s exhibition area is opening to the public again on 29 November 2025 with the special exhibition Archistories \u2013 Architecture in Art. From 2026, the Carrera will also be open for Kunsthalle events.<\/p>\n                                    <div>\n                <a href=\"https:\/\/www.kunsthalle-karlsruhe.de\/en\/exhibition\/kunsthallekarlsruhezkm\/\" title=\"Where (else) is open  See You \u2013 Encounters with the Kunsthalle Karlsruhe - Exhibition in the Staatliche Kunsthalle Karlsruhe \" class=\"button    \" target=\"_self\" >\n                                        <span>Where (else) is open  See You \u2013 Encounters with the Kunsthalle Karlsruhe &#8211; Exhibition in the Staatliche Kunsthalle Karlsruhe <\/span>\n                <\/a>\n                <\/div>\n    \n\n                        <\/div>\n                <\/div>\n            <\/div>\n        <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n\n        <div class=\"block-read-more-button\">\n            <div class=\"block-read-more-button-icon minus\">\n                <svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"14\" height=\"4\" viewBox=\"0 0 14 4\">\n                    <path fill=\"#FFF\" fill-rule=\"evenodd\" d=\"M0 .253h14V3.39H0z\"\/>\n                <\/svg>\n            <\/div>\n        <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n<section class=\"block block-copy-floating-text\" >\n    <div class=\"container-fluid\">\n                    <div class=\"row center-xs\">\n                <div class=\"col-xs-12 col-sm-8\">\n                    <div class=\"box\">\n                        <h2>The new heart of the Kunsthalle Karlsruhe<\/h2>\n                    <\/div>\n                <\/div>\n            <\/div>\n                <div class=\"row\">\n            <div class=\"col-xs-12 col-sm-10 col-sm-offset-2 right\">\n                <div class=\"box\">\n                    <div class=\"copy\">\n                        <div class=\"floating-element col-sm-5\">\n                            <div class=\"floating-element-content\">\n                                <div class=\"floating-element-content-wrapper\">\n                                    \t<div class=\"lazy-media\" id=\"media_69fdd888669e1\">\n\t\t<div class=\"lazy-media-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"lazy-media-copyright\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"lazy-media-copyright-content\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"lazy-media-copyright-content-empty\" aria-hidden=\"true\" style=\"pointer-events: none; user-select: none;\">&nbsp;<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t<div class=\"height-container\"  style=\"padding-bottom:58.333333333333%;\">\n\t\t\t\t<script type=\"application\/json\" class=\"lazy-media-data\">\n\t\t\t\t{\n\t\t\t\t\"sizes\" : {\"medium\":{\"file\":\"Kunsthalle-Karslruhe_Perspektive_Innenhof_Staab-Architekten-eng-300x175.jpg\",\"width\":300,\"height\":175,\"mime-type\":\"image\\\/jpeg\",\"filesize\":81019},\"large\":{\"file\":\"Kunsthalle-Karslruhe_Perspektive_Innenhof_Staab-Architekten-eng-1024x597.jpg\",\"width\":1024,\"height\":597,\"mime-type\":\"image\\\/jpeg\",\"filesize\":720491},\"thumbnail\":{\"file\":\"Kunsthalle-Karslruhe_Perspektive_Innenhof_Staab-Architekten-eng-150x88.jpg\",\"width\":150,\"height\":88,\"mime-type\":\"image\\\/jpeg\",\"filesize\":33104},\"medium_large\":{\"file\":\"Kunsthalle-Karslruhe_Perspektive_Innenhof_Staab-Architekten-eng-768x448.jpg\",\"width\":768,\"height\":448,\"mime-type\":\"image\\\/jpeg\",\"filesize\":409250},\"1536x1536\":{\"file\":\"Kunsthalle-Karslruhe_Perspektive_Innenhof_Staab-Architekten-eng-1536x896.jpg\",\"width\":1536,\"height\":896,\"mime-type\":\"image\\\/jpeg\",\"filesize\":1568251},\"original\":{\"file\":\"Kunsthalle-Karslruhe_Perspektive_Innenhof_Staab-Architekten-eng.jpg\",\"width\":1920,\"height\":1120}},\n\t\t\t\t\"path\" : \"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/\",\n\t\t\t\t\"video\" : \"\",\n\t\t\t\t\"autoplay\" : \"\",\n\t\t\t\t\"youtube\" : \"\"\n\t\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t\t<\/script>\n\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"image-wrapper\" id=\"image_69fdd888669e2\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\" alt=\"Visualization of the new inner courtyard of the Staatliche Kunsthalle Karlsruhe.

Lighting and security technologies as well as workshop facilities are to be modernised to meet today\u2019s requirements.<\/p>\n<p>In future, visitors can pass through an underground passage from the Kunsthalle\u2019s atrium to the extension created in second construction phase in the former Amtsgericht (district court) building on the opposite side of Waldstra\u00dfe.<\/p>\n                        \n\n                        <\/div>\n                <\/div>\n            <\/div>\n        <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n\n        <div class=\"block-read-more-button\">\n            <div class=\"block-read-more-button-icon minus\">\n                <svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"14\" height=\"4\" viewBox=\"0 0 14 4\">\n                    <path fill=\"#FFF\" fill-rule=\"evenodd\" d=\"M0 .253h14V3.39H0z\"\/>\n                <\/svg>\n            <\/div>\n        <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n<section class=\"block block-copy-floating-text\" >\n    <div class=\"container-fluid\">\n                    <div class=\"row center-xs\">\n                <div class=\"col-xs-12 col-sm-8\">\n                    <div class=\"box\">\n                        <h2>The Gallery of Contemporary Art \u2013 The second construction phase<\/h2>\n                    <\/div>\n                <\/div>\n            <\/div>\n                <div class=\"row\">\n            <div class=\"col-xs-12 col-sm-10 left\">\n                <div class=\"box\">\n                    <div class=\"copy\">\n                        <div class=\"floating-element col-sm-5\">\n                            <div class=\"floating-element-content\">\n                                <div class=\"floating-element-content-wrapper\">\n                                    \t<div class=\"lazy-media\" id=\"media_69fdd8886934d\">\n\t\t<div class=\"lazy-media-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"lazy-media-copyright\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"lazy-media-copyright-content\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"lazy-media-copyright-content-empty\" aria-hidden=\"true\" style=\"pointer-events: none; user-select: none;\">&nbsp;<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t<div class=\"height-container\"  style=\"padding-bottom:70.729166666667%;\">\n\t\t\t\t<script type=\"application\/json\" class=\"lazy-media-data\">\n\t\t\t\t{\n\t\t\t\t\"sizes\" : {\"medium\":{\"file\":\"Wordcloud-2-eng-300x212.jpg\",\"width\":300,\"height\":212,\"mime-type\":\"image\\\/jpeg\",\"filesize\":75690},\"large\":{\"file\":\"Wordcloud-2-eng-1024x724.jpg\",\"width\":1024,\"height\":724,\"mime-type\":\"image\\\/jpeg\",\"filesize\":486361},\"thumbnail\":{\"file\":\"Wordcloud-2-eng-150x106.jpg\",\"width\":150,\"height\":106,\"mime-type\":\"image\\\/jpeg\",\"filesize\":22163},\"medium_large\":{\"file\":\"Wordcloud-2-eng-768x543.jpg\",\"width\":768,\"height\":543,\"mime-type\":\"image\\\/jpeg\",\"filesize\":318709},\"1536x1536\":{\"file\":\"Wordcloud-2-eng-1536x1086.jpg\",\"width\":1536,\"height\":1086,\"mime-type\":\"image\\\/jpeg\",\"filesize\":876427},\"original\":{\"file\":\"Wordcloud-2-eng.jpg\",\"width\":1920,\"height\":1358}},\n\t\t\t\t\"path\" : \"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/\",\n\t\t\t\t\"video\" : \"\",\n\t\t\t\t\"autoplay\" : \"\",\n\t\t\t\t\"youtube\" : \"\"\n\t\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t\t<\/script>\n\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"image-wrapper\" id=\"image_69fdd8886934e\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\" alt=\"\" title=\"Wordcloud\" \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t<noscript>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/Wordcloud-2-eng.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"Wordcloud\" \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/noscript>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n\n                                    <a href=\"https:\/\/www.kunsthalle-karlsruhe.de\/gallery\/?view=WzgzNTA5XQ%3D%3D\" class=\"mixin-motion-link\" data-src=\"\/blocks\/block-copy-floating-image\/assets\/lupe_neg.json\" data-hover-out=\"1\"><\/a>\n                                <\/div>\n                                <h6 class=\"text-align-left\"><\/h6>\n                            <\/div>\n                        <\/div>\n\n                        <div class=\"floating-copy editor col-sm-offset-2\">\n                            <p>To ensure the Kunsthalle has a functioning infrastructure, the second construction phase, still to be planned in detail, envisages an expansion building on the Amtsgericht (district court) site opposite symbolising the transparency and openness of post-war modernity.

Rather than this extension merely seeking to enlarge the Kunsthalle\u2019s exhibition space, it aims at fundamentally completing the museum. With this objective, it will make the museum comprehensively fit for the future in a way impossible by refurbishing the main building alone. As home to the Kunsthalle der Gegenwart (Gallery of Contemporary Art), the extension complements the historic 19th-century main building with a programmatic presentation of works highlighting developments from post-war modern art to today. At the same time, it further increases the museum\u2019s appeal to urban society.<\/p>\n<p>The Kunsthalle der Gegenwart (Gallery of Contemporary Art) is not only to house the permanent collection of 20th and 21st-century art, but also provide space for special exhibitions and a Paper Centre. Comprising the Collection of Prints and Drawings, Photography Collection, Paper Conservation and Restoration as well as the Library, the Paper Centre thus combines outstanding expertise in collecting, researching and preserving the medium of paper with accessible art education. This is designed to make the Kunsthalle Karlsruhe as an institution sustainably fit for the future and strengthen its role as a place of integration. As an open, participative venue, the Kunsthalle der Gegenwart (Gallery of Contemporary Art) is envisaged as a sign of renewal for the city. Here, the Kunsthalle is responding to the current museum discourse of cultural institutions as social spaces.<\/p>\n<p>The concrete planning for the second construction phase could start at the earliest in the 2030s. By then, the planning for the new use of the Amtsgericht (district court) building must be completed. The entire process of deliberation and planning is subject to agreement on funding.<\/p>\n                        \n\n                        <\/div>\n                <\/div>\n            <\/div>\n        <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n\n        <div class=\"block-read-more-button\">\n            <div class=\"block-read-more-button-icon minus\">\n                <svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"14\" height=\"4\" viewBox=\"0 0 14 4\">\n                    <path fill=\"#FFF\" fill-rule=\"evenodd\" d=\"M0 .253h14V3.39H0z\"\/>\n                <\/svg>\n            <\/div>\n        <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n<section class=\"block block-copy-floating-text\" >\n    <div class=\"container-fluid\">\n                    <div class=\"row center-xs\">\n                <div class=\"col-xs-12 col-sm-8\">\n                    <div class=\"box\">\n                        <h2>An Art Campus for Karlsruhe <\/h2>\n                    <\/div>\n                <\/div>\n            <\/div>\n                <div class=\"row\">\n            <div class=\"col-xs-12 col-sm-10 col-sm-offset-2 right\">\n                <div class=\"box\">\n                    <div class=\"copy\">\n                        <div class=\"floating-element col-sm-5\">\n                            <div class=\"floating-element-content\">\n                                <div class=\"floating-element-content-wrapper\">\n                                    \t<div class=\"lazy-media\" id=\"media_69fdd8886a59d\">\n\t\t<div class=\"lazy-media-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"lazy-media-copyright\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"lazy-media-copyright-content\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"lazy-media-copyright-content-empty\" aria-hidden=\"true\" style=\"pointer-events: none; user-select: none;\">&nbsp;<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t<div class=\"height-container\"  style=\"padding-bottom:65.104166666667%;\">\n\t\t\t\t<script type=\"application\/json\" class=\"lazy-media-data\">\n\t\t\t\t{\n\t\t\t\t\"sizes\" : {\"medium\":{\"file\":\"Kunstcampus_Linie_Button-eng-300x195.jpg\",\"width\":300,\"height\":195,\"mime-type\":\"image\\\/jpeg\",\"filesize\":97540},\"large\":{\"file\":\"Kunstcampus_Linie_Button-eng-1024x667.jpg\",\"width\":1024,\"height\":667,\"mime-type\":\"image\\\/jpeg\",\"filesize\":934130},\"thumbnail\":{\"file\":\"Kunstcampus_Linie_Button-eng-150x98.jpg\",\"width\":150,\"height\":98,\"mime-type\":\"image\\\/jpeg\",\"filesize\":27798},\"medium_large\":{\"file\":\"Kunstcampus_Linie_Button-eng-768x500.jpg\",\"width\":768,\"height\":500,\"mime-type\":\"image\\\/jpeg\",\"filesize\":550486},\"1536x1536\":{\"file\":\"Kunstcampus_Linie_Button-eng-1536x1000.jpg\",\"width\":1536,\"height\":1000,\"mime-type\":\"image\\\/jpeg\",\"filesize\":1838860},\"original\":{\"file\":\"Kunstcampus_Linie_Button-eng.jpg\",\"width\":1920,\"height\":1250}},\n\t\t\t\t\"path\" : \"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/\",\n\t\t\t\t\"video\" : \"\",\n\t\t\t\t\"autoplay\" : \"\",\n\t\t\t\t\"youtube\" : \"\"\n\t\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t\t<\/script>\n\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"image-wrapper\" id=\"image_69fdd8886a59e\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\" alt=\"\" title=\"Art campus, with the view of the extension\" \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t<noscript>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/Kunstcampus_Linie_Button-eng.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"Art campus, with the view of the extension\" \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/noscript>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n\n                                    <a href=\"https:\/\/www.kunsthalle-karlsruhe.de\/gallery\/?view=WzgzNDg1XQ%3D%3D\" class=\"mixin-motion-link\" data-src=\"\/blocks\/block-copy-floating-image\/assets\/lupe_neg.json\" data-hover-out=\"1\"><\/a>\n                                <\/div>\n                                <h6 class=\"text-align-left\"><\/h6>\n                            <\/div>\n                        <\/div>\n\n                        <div class=\"floating-copy editor \">\n                            <p>Although the historic main building is to remain the heart of this ensemble, it will be supplemented by the expansion building with the Kunsthalle der Gegenwart (Gallery of Contemporary Art).

The art campus would have a scientific counterpart in the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT) on the other side of the palace district.<\/p>\n<p>In this way, the Kunsthalle Karlsruhe locations are to have their own particular profile. In terms of content and programme in the overall structure, the main building is dedicated to presenting the collection from the Middle Ages to the early 20th century. As the main hub for visitors to explore individual buildings, it also houses the Visitor Centre and related services, such as the museum shop and caf\u00e9.<\/p>\n<p>The Kunsthalle der Gegenwart (Gallery of Contemporary Art) is not only to house the permanent collection of 20th and 21st-century art, but also special exhibitions as well as a Paper Centre. Comprising the Collection of Prints and Drawings, Photography Collection, Paper Conservation and Restoration as well as the Library, the Paper Centre thus combines outstanding expertise in collecting, researching and preserving the medium of paper with accessible art education. Visitor access to the new gallery and Paper Centre will be via an underground passage from the historic main building.<\/p>\n<p>As one of Germany\u2019s first children\u2019s museums, the Junge Kunsthalle not only offers exhibitions and educational services for young target groups, but also hands-on experience in practical art workshops.<\/p>\n<p>In future, the Orangery will be home to sculptures, large-format installations, performances and experimental formats. It is envisaged as a multifunctional location designed to host concerts and events created in cooperation with other cultural institutions.<\/p>\n                        \n\n
