That's the funny part. Visually those two will be very much alike in first impression and they will also be only 130 kilometeres apart.

Old Stadium "Baltika" (formerly known as "Walter Simon Platz") is the oldest in Russia. It was built in 1892. From 1905 to 1926 he served as the home arena for the best club of East Prussia - VfB Koenigsberg (16 champion titles of Baltic League).

In the thirties, there is often gave speeches Hitler here. Germany NT play to "Walter Simon Platz" 2 games:
Germany 3-0 Lietuva(12000), october 1935.
Germany 4-1 Estonia(14000), august 1937.

Is this to be built on the site of the current Baltika stadium?

1) Nope, they don't really look alike except for color.
2) It's not a final project.

So Kaliningrad will host WC 2018? Or is it only one of many candidates?

Currently all cities (may be, except Luzhniki Stadium and Gazprom Arena is St. Petersburg) can be consider just as candidates. The final list must be defined in Russian Goverment and approved in FIFA. As I heard, even such large city as São Paulo (urban population - 11 mln. people, agglomeration - 21 mln.) was excluded by FIFA from the list of the cities for World Cup 2014.

Rather yes than no. As you can understand, for some Europeans it's important that Kaliningrad can be host matches due to well-known reasons.
