Moving to Karlsruhe
Karlsruhe is a German city placed in Baden-Württemberg, in southwest Germany, near the border with France. Its population counts 297,488 inhabitants.
Karlsruhe was considered to be a model for Washington, D.C. because of the tower of the Karlsruhe Palace (Schloss) at the centre and 32 streets radiating out from it like spokes on a wheel. Its construction started in 1715 and developed in 1746 and 1785. During World War II the palace was destroyed by Allied bombing, and then rebuilt.
Karlsruhe Palace hosts the Federal Constitutional Court and the Federal Court of Justice, two of the main courts in Germany.
The Centre for Art and Media ZKM(Zentrum für Kunst und Medientechnologie)was opened in 1999, as a cultural institution. It holds two museums, three research institutions, a media center, a laboratory and a number of events spaces.

One institute related to ZKM is the State University of Design (Staatliche Hochschule für Gestaltung) dealing with communication design, product design, stage design, exhibition design, media art, sound, film, video, digital art, 3D animation, media theory, art history, and philosophy. Another one is the Museum for Contemporary Art.
