Stuttgart was founded around 950 from a stud court of the Alemannic duke Liutolf. The town was given the rights of the town in the 13th century, when the marketers of Baden ruled the town. In the 14th century Stuttgart became Württemberg, and after the destruction of the Wirtemberg on the Rotenberg it became the capital of the county and the later duchy of Württemberg. Today, Stuttgart is the capital of Baden-Württemberg.

A special feature of Stuttgart is the large difference in altitude within the city area. The lowest point at 207 m is at the Neckarsluuse Hofen in the district of Mühlhausen, the highest is 549 m high, located in the district of Vaihingen near the motorway. The numerous hills mean that within the city there are greater differences in altitude with staircases, the stems.

In Echterdingen, south of Stuttgart, there is the international airport Stuttgart, which is served by numerous airlines. There are both national and international scheduled and charter services. The airport is 27 minutes away by S2 and S3 subway lines from Stuttgart's main station for 2.90 € (2019 tariff). It is connected to the German and European road network by its own exit via the A8 motorway. The airport is also home to the Stuttgart Airport bus terminal (see below).

Stuttgart's main railway station is just 1¼ hours by train from Frankfurt/Main International Airport.

by train

48,7838888888899,181666666666672 Stuttgart Central Station, Arnulf-Klett-Platz 2, 70173 Stuttgart.       . Opened: 24/7 last amendment: June 2018

The main railway station is located in the center of Stuttgart. It is part of the long-distance (ICE, EC and IC) network, as well as regional, most S-Bahn and some underground lines.

Since June 2007, there have been four direct TGV services to Paris (Gare de l'Est) via Strasbourg, which will be accessible in about 3 hours and 10 minutes. Other direct international connections take you to Zurich (2¾ hour journey) and Klagenfurt (7 hours 19 min.; on Salzburg: 4 hours 11 min).

ICE connections lead to Munich, Cologne via Frankfurt Airport, Hamburg and Berlin via Mannheim, Frankfurt am Main Hauptbahnhof and Hanover. The journey from Frankfurt Hauptbahnhof takes about 1¼ hours on schedule. Direct connections are also to Wuerzburg, Ulm, Lindau, Karlsruhe and Mannheim.

Due to the construction work for the Stuttgart 21 project, it is important to check the possible changes in the allocations of platforms before leaving a train and to expect that the construction work will result in times higher than the departure platform and the change-over, in particular between the S-Bahn (101 and 102) and regional and long-distance services (1-16) may be expected. It is easier to change trains from the highway to the S-Bahn already in Ludwigsburg, Waiblingen, Bad Cannstatt towards Hauptbahnhof, where you can change trains to the other S-Bahn lines. The Stadtmitte station is also well suited for a change-over as most travelers change trains at the main station. The possibility of having a seat is greater there.

By bus

On the street

Stuttgart is located on the motorways (Munich-Karlsruhe) and (Heilbronn-Singen). There are numerous excursions with fast connections to Stuttgart-Mitte. Unfortunately, these are very dusty during rush hours (new vineyards, B10, etc.).

• Many roads lead directly to the center of Stuttgart, but you should avoid them during rush hours. There are many parking garages in the city center, which are easily found thanks to a well-signposted parking management system.

public transport

In April 2019, there was a major reform of the VVS system, since then there are only five tariff zones which are like an onion in the shape of a circle around Stuttgart (as well as three other tariff zones for transitional tariff zones), and the whole of Stuttgart's urban area is just a tariff zone, so it is no longer necessary to check and calculate city trips.

ticket costs

Tickets can also be purchased digitally.

Between 1553 and 1578, the Dukes Christoph and Ludwig led the reconstruction of the castle and employed the builders Aberlin Tresch, Blasius and Marin Berwart, who carried out and directed the renovation in the Renaissance style. In the 18th century, the moat was laid dry. In 1931 the castle was partly burned out before the war in 1944 did not pass here without trace. Despite all the damage, the charming and massive facade of the Old Castle was preserved almost completely, including the three round towers and the largely undestroyed castle church.

• 48,77819,181949 Neues Schloss (Ministry of Finance Baden-Württemberg), Schlossplatz 4, 70173 Stuttgart.       . The Neue Schloss in Stuttgart is a baroque castle complex in large parts. Construction began in 1744 under the direction of Duke Carl Eugen, who commissioned architect Leopoldo Matteo Retti, with the aim of turning Stuttgart into a second Versaille. Retti was also the nephew of the Ludwigsburg architect Giovanni Frisoni. In 1746 until 1951 the main building - Corps de Logis - and the Baroque garden wing were built. Following the example of Versailles, three wings form a horseshoe-shaped courtyard, which is adorned with the deer and lion at the entrance. The façade is simple, with only a few sculptures. After Retti's death, the Paris architect Louis Philippe de la Guêpière continued the construction. He created the wings on the side of the city and set the dome in 1760. In 1768, R. F. Fischer the construction line before the court mayor Thouret finished the mostly baroque castle with the planing wing in classical style from 1806. The 365 rooms of the castle were finished and show elements of Baroque, Rococo, Classicism and Empire. In the 1920s, the New Castle Museum was destroyed and in the Second World War its interior was severely destroyed. On 15 April 1920, in an attic apartment in the castle, the later President of the Confederation, Richard von Weizsäcker, saw the light of the world in a mansard apartment - a commemorative plaque placed on the building. Between 1956 and 1962, after a narrow political majority decision - including the demolition of the ruins and the other reconstruction of the area - the reconstruction of the New Castle was carried out, during which at least its outer facade and individual prunes could be restored. Today, the representation rooms of the Baden-Württemberg government are located in the Neue Schloss palace, including the marble hall, the staircase and the Aeneasgalerie in the central district, as well as part of the Ministry of Culture and the White Hall in the Planieflügel used for cultural events, as well as parts of the Ministry of Finance in the Schlossgarten wing.

television tower

The Stuttgart TV tower is a landmark of the city. From the viewing platform you have a great view.

The 217 m high landmark of Stuttgart was built between 1954 and 1956 as the world's first television tower. The two viewing platforms overlooking each other and the restaurants and event levels below in the tower basket offer a superb panorama. From the end of March 2013 until the end of January 2016, the construction was closed for visitors due to unfulfilled fire protection conditions.

Besides the viewing platforms, the tower has a panoramic café and another tower basement (formerly a panoramic restaurant) that can be used for exhibitions or cultural events. Friendly and well-dressed elevators take you to the lower platform at 150 m altitude. This platform is accessible only by lift (speed: 5 m/s), while you usually change over short stairways between the levels within the tower basket, where the elevator is only available on specific request.

Other works

Inside view of the city library in Stuttgart.

• Central Station - built in 1914-1927 according to plans of Paul Bonatz, the tower of the originally three-winged head station building, which was severely damaged in World War II but restored with only slight changes, has a viewing platform (admission free). This is the second train station in Stuttgart, the first one dating from 1846, whose facade has been preserved a few arcade embankments, located a few hundred meters further inland from the city on today’s Bolzstraße.

• The market hall, Dorotheenstraße 4. The listed market hall was built according to the plans of architect Prof. Martin Elsässer and inaugurated in January 1914 (the exact day is controversial among local historians). It replaced a predecessor construction made of steel and glass. The art nouveau building is worth seeing and is covered with a glass roof. Numerous market stands offer local and exotic delicacies. On the first floor you will find a mural gallery with gastronomy and other shops. The remains of a tramway, partially visible in the hall floor, were originally intended for the market loading, which was then in some cases customary in the railroad, but it is not possible to ascertain at this stage whether the track was ever used according to its intended purpose.

• Town Hall - The four-winged building in late Gothic Flemish style was opened in 1905 and replaced a much smaller Renaissance building. After destruction in the Second World War, the three rear wings were restored to their original condition, but without the distinctive roof structure with the typical side foxes. The badly damaged market square wing was replaced in 1953-1956 by a modern and contemporary construction, planned by Hans Paul Schmohl and Paul Stohrer, the largely intact clock tower of the original structure on the market square side was also fitted with a modern shell suitable for the new construction and carries a bell game on its upper floor, In the evening, Swabian folk songs regularly catch. The three paternoster lifts inside are particularly popular among city hall staff and visitors.

"Great house" for opera and ballet (preserved in original state after restoration), "Small house" for acting (after destruction in World War II as well as the cult site replaced by a new building).

• Liederhalle, Berliner Platz - The present complex with five different sized concert and event halls was built in 1955-1991 by different architects instead of a predecessor building destroyed in the Second World War, is partly listed as a historical monument and is now one of the most renowned concert halls and congress centers.

• Tagblatt-Turm, Eberhardtstraße 61 - the first modern reinforced concrete tower in Stuttgart from 1928, originally housed the renowned newspaper editorial, today including several theaters and cultural institutions.

• Schwaben-Zentrum between Hauptstätter Strasse and Eberhardtstraße - The distinctive, long residential, office and business complex was completed in the late 1970s and was replaced by the "united Hüttenwerke", which became legendary after World War II, on a war-torn inner city area - an unplanned area A collection of temporary buildings and barracks, in which, not least through the influx of members of the then occupying powers, catering and entertainment facilities of various kinds had established themselves.

• Shellenturm (original name: Kastkellereiturm), Weberstraße - the most impressive remnant of the medieval Stuttgart city fortifications. The building was reconstructed in 1978-1980 on the existing wall fuselage on the initiative of Stuttgart citizens and businessmen and is now used as a wine cellar. Originally, the Schellen- und Kastkellereiturm limited the so-called Leonharts- or Eßlinger suburbs, which, unlike Stuttgart's city center, was only damaged insignificantly during the Second World War and could largely preserve their historical building stock. Thus, when talk today of "Old Town" or "Towns" is heard in Stuttgart, this neighborhood is mostly between Wilhelmsplatz, Main/Esslinger Street, Charlotten, Olga and Katharinenstraße and not the actual city center, which, with the exception of less prominent pre-war buildings, was rebuilt according to modern standards.

Other remnants of the city walls can still be seen, especially along the former inner ring, mostly integrated in newer buildings.

streets and squares

• The castle square is surrounded by several important buildings. It is located between the new castle and the royal building. To the south are the Old Castle and the Ministry of Justice, while on the north-east side the Art Building separates the square from the Upper Castle Park. In the middle of the square stands the Jubilee column, which will take place on the 25th. King Wilhelm was established in 1841.

• Market Square - originally medieval square with a corresponding marginal building with local half-timbered houses. In 1905, the town hall was replaced by the massive Gothic building. After serious destruction in the Second World War, the place was restored without visible historical building material, except for the market well, but with the maintenance of the small-part parceling of the land. Set in the early 20th century, the bunker underneath the square became a windowless hotel after 1945, which existed until 1985. Since then, the bunker rooms, with the majority of the rest of the hotel equipment, have been empty and are becoming increasingly obsolete, but are regularly opened for viewing during events such as the museum's long night.

• Old Wine Stops - A route between Stuttgart-Süd and Degerloch, which has been proven since the Middle Ages, and part of the long-distance route known as the "Swiss Road", with up to 16% of the incline extremely steep, but nevertheless initially without a viable alternative for carts. In the administration of the historic Württemberg it formed the boundary between the parts of the country "Whether the Steig" and "Under the Steig", from which the names "Oberland" and "Unterland", which until now have been used but have been defined differently, derive. In 1884, along the Alte Weinsteige, the Meterspurian cogwheel railway, which is still in existence today, was opened as a basis for further secondary railway lines that open up the Filderplane. The road itself lost its regional significance for transport when the New Wines were opened in 1831.

• New vineyards - built in 1826-1831, was considered to be an engineering pioneer. Its upper part and the subsequent Hohenheimer Strasse are now part of the federal highway B27. Their continuation on the Degerlocher mark is called Obere Weinsteige. In 1904, it was established as a tram-like railway between Bopser and Degerloch, which was later connected to the network of Stuttgart trams and was eventually fully integrated into them. It was considered one of the most beautiful panoramic tram routes in Germany, but was increasingly in conflict with the increasing traffic. In 1987-1990, the railway sector was divided into a parallel tunnel, but most of it was preserved by the historic overhead contact lines.

• Königstrasse - From 1806, after the planning of the former "Great Grabens", a splendid avenue was built. The name was not given after a certain monarch, but on the occasion of the Württemberg survey of the kingdom. After the destruction of the Second World War, the historical building material along the road was removed with only a few significant exceptions (especially in the area of the castle square). From the 1960s on, the street was gradually transformed into a pedestrian zone. After the passage was removed, the tramway was moved underground in the lower section, completely discontinued in the upper section, and its former central junction at the castle square is now a pure (underground) transit station by the disappearance of the branch lines. Today it is the main shopping street in Stuttgart and one of the most frequented pedestrian areas in Germany.

• B14 / Cityring - The biggest urban-planning blow after the Second World War was the construction of the multi-lane city motorway in the course of the main city/wooden and Konrad-Adenauer-Straße, for which entire house carrees and historically significant individual buildings had to move. Examples of this are the High School of Carlsschule, the Old State Archives and the former National Alliance. Similarly, in the northern and western downtown, where the historic Friedrichsbau and the Crown Prince Palace, among others, had to be demolished, a completely new route was struck with the Theodor-Heuss-Straße and a multi-story roundabout cross-section was created at Österreichische Platz with the former driving destination of the "car-adapted city".

park

• Zoological botanical garden Wilhelma - Wilhelma is one of the most important zoos in Germany and an important botanical garden. The main entrance is on Neckartalstraße, the closest stop is Wilhelma (U14). There are two additional entrances, but they are not permanently occupied and open. The entrance of Parkstraße is near the station Eckhard (U13) and an entrance from the Rosensteinpark near the Schaubauernhof. A walk is signposted from the main entrance; the color of the signs from the entrance to the farm is yellow, the return path is blue. The multimedia presentation on Stuttgart-Rundgang.de also gives an impression. At the center of the Wilhelma area is the Maurish farmhouse, which was largely destroyed in the Second World War and was only restored to the exterior, built in the early 19th century by King Wilhelm I. by Württemberg as a bathing house and a festival, inspired by the Alhambra and other Moorish palaces. The Wilhelma prides itself on its azaleas and camellias, some of which are a few hundred years old. Other botanical highlights include the largest Magnolia Basin north of the Alps and the Cacti House. The butterfly house is certainly particularly impressive by moving through the exposed insects. The Amazon House is also very interesting. Numerous free-rides offer excursions to the animals, including the Siberian tigers and the Syrian brown bears. The Wilhelma became known to a wide audience by the polar bear Wilbär, born in December 2007. Now this bear has grown up and has a new home in Orsa in the Swedish province of Dalarna. The regular entrance fee is: 14 €, children 6-17 J.: €7 (from 1.3.2013). Allow about 5 hours for your stay at the Wilhelma. self-catering is possible; Otherwise, there is a medium-price SB restaurant. Example: Lentils, pies and sausages (dish) are charged 7,10 EUR.

• The castle garden, the Rosensteinpark, the Leibfriedsche Garden (also called the Villa Moser Park), the Wartberg Mountain Area, the Killesberg Elevation Park and the Feuerbacher Heide form the "Grüne U" of Stuttgart. The continuous connection of the different parks was realized at the International Garden Show (IGA) in 1993 and completed in 2012 with the so-called "Green Fuge" south of the Killesberg main entrance.
