5.0 based on 8,161 reviews
The Museum celebrates the automobile invented by Carl Benz in 1886: it relates its history and tells its stories, bringing both alive by placing them in the context of technology, day-to-day life, social history and popular culture. More than 160 vehicles of all types are the main protagonists. They range from some of the oldest automobiles ever built to legendary racing cars and futuristic research vehicles. Together with other exhibits, they form the centrepiece of the permanent exhibition covering a total of 16,500 square metres in twelve rooms. This unparalleled world can be discovered on two tours that follow a 'Legend' and 'Collection' narrative.

A mazing museum of automotive history, brilliantly laid out in a logical fashion with very good information relating to world history as you start from the top at the beginning and work your way down to the present at the bottom. Lots to see and some great photo opportunities. Take plenty of time. 2hours at least. The shop at the end of museum is good but a bit pricey. And we were lucky, in front of museum was a classic car meeting that day. Many american muscle cars to see.

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

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!

In the middle of Stuttgart, nice to relax in between. The lake with its trees offers shade on hot days and the view of the romantic and neo-Gothic Johanneskirche am Feuersee is great. The south bank of the lake with the Feuerseepromenade was redesigned in 2016 with new seating and offers many seating options. With the turtles and fish in the pond, also a great place for families with children

We hiked up with our 2 younger kids. A nice piece of history with a great view. Many kids were happy to climb around the rubble as the adults looked out over the city.

the Church is located just in front of the Feuersee, the view from there is really impressive. In the night the lights make the church even more beautiful.
