Beskrivning
Explore Stuttgart on a guided walking tour. Visit the New Palace, Old Palace, and Schillerplatz, and enjoy panoramic views of the city from the Eugensplatz viewpoint.
Begin your tour at Schlossplatz, Stuttgart's vibrant central square and the city's most popular meeting place. Surrounded by elegant historic buildings, gardens, and fountains, it provides the perfect introduction to the capital of Baden-Württemberg. Learn how Stuttgart developed from a small medieval settlement into one of Germany's most prosperous cities and the birthplace of the automobile.
From Schlossplatz, continue to the New Palace (Neues Schloss) and the neighboring Old Palace (Altes Schloss). This area tells the story of the former Duchy and Kingdom of Württemberg, the royal family, and the city's transformation over the centuries. Discover how much of Stuttgart had to be rebuilt after World War II while preserving its historical identity.
Next, visit the impressive Schillerplatz, one of Stuttgart's oldest and most atmospheric squares. Surrounded by beautifully restored historic buildings and dominated by the Collegiate Church (Stiftskirche), this area offers a glimpse into medieval Stuttgart. Along the way, hear stories about local traditions, famous personalities, and daily life in the city throughout different periods of history.
The walk then leads to the Market Hall (Markthalle), one of Germany's finest Art Nouveau market buildings. Even from the outside, its architecture is impressive, while inside you can experience the international flavors and culinary diversity that reflect Stuttgart's cosmopolitan character. Depending on the opening hours, there may be time to browse the stalls or sample regional specialties.
Conclude your tour with a leisurely walk to the Eugensplatz viewpoint, one of Stuttgart's most beautiful panoramic terraces overlooking the city center, vineyards, and surrounding hills. On the way, learn why Stuttgart is often described as a city "built in a valley" and how its geography has shaped its development. At the viewpoint, enjoy one of the city's most iconic photo opportunities while receiving recommendations for museums, restaurants, local wines, and further activities to enjoy after the tour.
