Discover Stuttgart by Hire Car
To explore Baden-Württemberg’s state capital, it’s best to put on your hiking boots and strap your backpack to your back, because the city between wine and vines nestles right up into its green hills.
If you’re not a hiker, it’s a good idea to scour Stuttgart and its environs in a hire car, and don’t miss one attraction, the view down the Weinstrasse from the car window of the city coming from the southern slopes.
Sights in Stuttgart
In addition to numerous museums such as the multimedia Haus der Geschichte, the architecturally impressive buildings of the Kunstmuseum and the Staatsgalerie, Stuttgart offers evening entertainment ranging from variety shows to opera and rock concerts. Children have a great time at Stuttgart’s small old school fun fair on the Killesberg.
With a bit of luck, you can peek through the coarse-mesh fence in Stuttgart’s oldest district, Bad Cannstatt, and see the stars and starlets of VfB Stuttgart performing their training sessions on the green pitch.
Just a stone’s throw away is the Daimler Chrysler Museum, where you can marvel at fascinating classic cars in their historical context and crane your head in disbelief at the modern architecture, should you have caught a day off from football training.
Leisure in Stuttgart
True Swabian serenity can be found in the mostly crowded, quintessentially Swabian wine taverns, where it’s pleasant to slurp a Viertele (drink a quarter of a litre of wine) and enjoy the region’s culinary specialities such as Kässpätzle, fried Maultaschen or a Vesper.
