Stadsinformatie
Essentiële informatie over de stad
Stuttgart Airport (STR)
Stuttgart Airport (STR) is about 13 km south of the city centre and is well connected by public transport. The S-Bahn lines S2 and S3 run regularly from the airport to Stuttgart Hauptbahnhof, taking just under 30 minutes. Taxis are also available and take around 20 minutes, depending on traffic. Long-distance and regional buses depart from the Stuttgart Airport Bus Terminal (SAB), located next to the terminal building.
Best Time to Visit
The best time to visit Stuttgart is summer, when the weather is warm and most events are in full swing—but expect crowds. Spring and autumn are quieter, with milder weather and plenty of festivals, making them a great time for sightseeing. Winters can be cold, but if you don’t mind bundling up, the snow and Christmas markets give the city a cosy, festive feel.
Passport/Visa
Citizens of the European Union (EU) and European Economic Area (EEA) countries do not need a visa to enter Germany, only a valid ID. Many other countries, including the United Kingdom, the United States, Canada, the United Arab Emirates, Australia, and New Zealand, benefit from visa-free entry for short stays of up to 90 days within a 180-day period. Visitors from visa-exempt countries must hold a valid passport and, starting in late 2025, will need to apply for an ETIAS (European Travel Information and Authorisation System) authorisation online before travelling. For those requiring a visa, such as travellers from some Middle Eastern, African or Asian nations, a Schengen visa must be obtained prior to arrival. All travellers should ensure their passport is valid for at least three months beyond their intended stay.
Public Transport
Stuttgart boasts an efficient and extensive public transport system operated by the Verkehrs und Tarifverbund Stuttgart (VVS), encompassing S-Bahn (commuter trains), U-Bahn (light rail), buses, and even unique modes like the rack railway (Zahnradbahn) and funicular (Standseilbahn). The network is well-integrated, making it one of the most convenient ways for tourists to navigate the city and its surroundings. For visitors planning multiple journeys, the VVS offers various ticket options, including Day Tickets and Group Day Tickets, which allow unlimited travel within selected fare zones until 7am the following day. Additionally, the StuttCard PLUS provides unlimited access to public transport across zones 1–5, along with free or discounted entry to numerous attractions, making it a valuable option for travellers aiming to explore the region extensively.
Taxi
Taxis are readily available throughout Stuttgart, with ranks at key locations like the main train station, the airport, and major squares. You can also hail one on the street or book via apps such as the Stuttgart Taxi App, SIXT ride, or Uber.
Post
Post offices in Stuttgart are typically open Monday to Friday from 9am to 6pm, and on Saturdays from 9am to noon, though hours may vary by location. Services include sending and receiving letters and parcels, purchasing stamps and packaging, and accessing financial services through Postbank branches. The most convenient branch for travellers is located inside Stuttgart Hauptbahnhof, offering easy access for those arriving by train or staying in the city centre. For 24/7 parcel collection and drop-off, DHL Packstation lockers are available throughout the city.
Pharmacy
In Stuttgart, pharmacies are easily identifiable by the red 'Apotheke' sign and are widely available across the city. While Germany does not have large pharmacy chains like in some other countries, many pharmacies are independently owned and operated. Notable examples in Stuttgart include Westend Apotheke and Apotheke Stadtmitte, both known for their comprehensive services and central locations.
