Welcome. I am Axel. Beneath the orderly streets of Karlsruhe Oststadt lies a history of fierce clashes... between grand visions and striking workers, between dogmatic pioneers and rebellious youth. We are stepping into an arena where rigid authority was steadily dismantled to make way for technological marvels and creative chaos. As we navigate this urban grid, keep an eye on the app map if you lose your bearings. The audio will trigger automatically as you reach each destination, though you can always press play yourself. If you get curious about the structural designs or the history along the way, just ask me in the chat. Oh, and a word of caution for our walk. Please avoid stepping in front of the local trams or speeding cyclists... it really complicates the liability paperwork. Let us begin our journey at a monument that sparked controversy before the first stone was even laid
