Stuttgart
A city wedged into green valleys between vineyards and forest, where the motor car was invented and two of its great museums still gleam. Grand squares and a Moorish royal garden sit below hillsides climbed by funiculars, with a rubble hill that remembers the war above them.

A selection of the 46 places we've researched in this city. The full set is in the Parroo app.
-
Mercedes-Benz Museum
A double-helix building you spiral down through 130 years of the motor car, past the 1886 Benz Patent-Motorwagen, the very first automobile, and a popemobile or two.
-
Palace Square
Stuttgart's grand central square, fronted by the baroque New Palace and centred on the 30-metre Jubilee Column. It is the city's living room for markets, concerts, and summer evenings.
-
Stuttgart TV Tower
The world's first reinforced-concrete television tower, built in 1956. Controversial when it rose, it is now a beloved landmark with viewing decks over the city's wooded valleys.
-
Wilhelma
A zoo and botanical garden in Moorish dress, the 'Alhambra on the Neckar' a 19th-century king built for himself, now home to 1,200 animal species among the greenhouses.
-
Weissenhof Estate
A 1927 housing estate that became a manifesto: seventeen architects, Le Corbusier and Walter Gropius among them, built flat-roofed white modernism here. It is now a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
-
Pig Museum
The world's largest pig museum: 50,000 exhibits across 27 themed rooms, devoted entirely to the pig, in an Art Nouveau building from 1902.
-
Birkenkopf (Monte Scherbelino)
Stuttgart's highest point is made of the city itself: 1.5 million cubic metres of wartime rubble heaped into a hill, its summit studded with broken masonry and a steel cross of remembrance.
