Stupferich is a district of the Baden-Württemberg city ​​of Karlsruhe .

Stupferich is located on the south-eastern edge of the urban area. Stupferich was an independent municipality until January 1, 1972, but was then incorporated into the city of Karlsruhe and since then has been one of the so-called "mountain villages" of Karlsruhe.

The name Stupferich is derived from the Old High German Stuotpferrich , or Stutpferrich ( stuot = "mare", pfarrih = pferrich = "pen"). This is how Reginboto von Malsch called his development settlement, where he had horse breeding carried out.

In 2000 Stupferich celebrated the 900th anniversary of the community. The first documentary mention of the community in a donation book from Hirsau Monastery dates back to 1110.

Stupferich can be reached via Rittnertstraße from Durlach (bus 23), via Grünwettersbach from Wolfartsweier (bus 47 from the main train station and Zündhütle ) or the Karlsbad junction on federal motorway 8, which is around one kilometer away .

The originally predominantly agricultural Stupferich now houses not only an abas branch, but also the Vogel-Sitz company and the headquarters of the Physik Instrumente (PI) company in the area south of the A 8.
