Things to do in Stuttgart, Baden-Wurttemberg: The Best Historic Sites

December 8, 2021 Leida Jutras

Surrounded by one of Germany's largest wine-growing regions, Stuttgart beckons cultural junkies with its acclaimed ballet, opera and philharmonic, while auto fans get revved up over the Mercedes Benz Museum. There's more green space than urban sprawl in the festival-friendly city, home to Europe's largest zoo and botanic garden combo, the Wilhelma. The WŸrttembergisches Landesmuseum, in one of the city's oldest structures, traces area history from the Stone Age. Buses or subway provide handy transport.

Palace Square

Reviewed By Moonamuslim

The square, in the middle of Stuttgart's center, divides Stuttgart's pedestrian zone with all its shops, restaurants and cafés. In addition to leisurely walks and shopping, a place for a short break. Beautifully laid out with the green areas, fountains, music pavilion ... the new castle and the old castle ... special events such as open-air concerts or live broadcasts take place again and again. Not to be overlooked or avoided, is in the pedestrian zone with many sights around it, or nearby - and definetly worth to visit

Grabkapelle auf dem Wuerttemberg

The Sepuchral Chapel on the Württemberg hill was erected by King Wilhelm I. in memoryof his beloved wife Katharina, who died at a young age. Offering a spectacular view of Stuttgart, this Monument to eternal love is considered Baden-Württemberg's most romantic spot.

A small but worthwhile sight in Stuttgart. Very recommendable as part of a fall hike through the vineyards surrounding Stuttgart. The surrounding scenery is lovely and the chapel itself is also worth having a look inside. Be sure to enter the lower part of the chapel and play with the accoustics - very neat!

Solitude Palace

Solitude Palace is Duke Carl Eugen's most ambitious and most personal creation. An impressive architectural ensemble and spectacular views make it exceptional.

Reviewed By Moonamuslim

Beautifully built, splendidly designed from the outside and inside, a fascinating sight and a nice place to walk. Located on a hill, it offers a beautiful view of the surroundings. You can park nearby, but not directly at the castle. It is about 1km that you walk through an avenue before you get to the property. The Rococo Castle Solitude, which was built in the years 1764 to 1775, has some relationship with Sanssouci in Potsdam. The rooms inside have approaches from the classicist era. Very nice for a sunny afternoon. You can sit comfortably on the large meadow in front of the castle. The only thing - on the weekends, the wedding parties pilgrimage to the castle for photo shoots and besiege the rows of stairs and the property. If possible, come outside of this time, it's a nicer photo opportunity and a nicer sight
