Stuttgart State Gallery

The Stuttgart State Gallery (Staatsgalerie Stuttgart) is one of Germany’s leading art museums, showcasing works from the 14th century to the present. Its collection includes approximately 5,500 paintings and sculptures, 250,000 works on paper, and up to 250,000 archival documents from artists' estates. The museum comprises three main buildings: the original 1843 structure, the postmodern extension designed by James Stirling in 1984, and a 2002 addition by architects Wilfrid and Katharina Steib. Stirling’s extension, known as the Neue Staatsgalerie, is celebrated for its innovative design that integrates a public walkway through the museum, blending classical and modern elements. The Staatsgalerie's extensive collection features masterpieces by artists such as Oskar Schlemmer, Henri Matisse, Salvador Dalí, and Joan Miró.

Mercedes-Benz Museum

The Mercedes-Benz Museum is worth a few hours, even if you're not big on cars. Spread over nine levels, it walks you through more than 130 years of automotive history—from the first motorised carriage to modern electric prototypes—with around 160 vehicles on display. The building itself is a bit of an architectural talking point, designed like a double helix. Exhibits are well laid out, easy to follow, and occasionally rotate.

Schloss Solitude

Schloss Solitude sits on a quiet ridge just outside Stuttgart, built in the 1760s as Duke Carl Eugen’s rather extravagant idea of a hunting lodge. It’s Rococo inside and out—decorative, symmetrical, and full of detail. You can join a guided tour or just come for the surroundings: forest paths, a long avenue that leads back to the city, and a view that opens wide on a clear day.

Mineral Spas

Stuttgart has the second-largest mineral water reserves in Europe, just after Budapest. In Bad Cannstatt, 19 springs produce around 44 million litres of mineral water daily. Locals have been using these waters for centuries, and today, three public mineral spas keep the tradition alive: DAS LEUZE, Mineralbad Berg, and SoleBad Cannstatt. DAS LEUZE is the most modern of the three, with indoor and outdoor pools fed by natural mineral springs, a large sauna area, and a dedicated children’s section. It’s located right by the Neckar River and easily accessible via public transport.
