Hofgarten, Akademie & Carlstadt

Discover the three quarters

Quarter Hofgarten

The Cultural Quarter Hofgarten is a place to stroll, make discoveries and linger. The green axis in the heart of the city is like a kaleidoscope of art, nature and history. Here, you can admire monuments and historical and modern architecture, enjoy openair concerts and explore contemporary installations.

Quarter Akademie

The Cultural Quarter Akademie is closely linked to art. Thanks to the proximity to Kunstakademie and the Altstadt (Old Town), city life and avant-garde culture merge here. In the narrow lanes and legendary bars, as well as in the exhibition spaces of K20, Kunsthalle and the many galleries, art reveals itself in all its facets – vibrant, diverse and always surprising.

Quarter Carlstadt

In the Cultural Quarter Carlstadt, history and culture blend together to create a charming neighbourhood full of tradition and a variety of lifestyles. Heine and the Schumanns once strolled along its cobbled streets, passing Romantic-era villas. Today, the streets are lined with small shops and restaurants, and the area boasts the city‘s highest concentration of museums and other exhibition venues.
