Mühlhausen is an administrative district in Stuttgart that stretches across both sides of the Neckar River and includes the neighborhoods of Freiberg, Mönchfeld, Hofen, and Neugereut. The area covers 912 hectares and features residential blocks, green spaces, and the river running through it.
The area was first documented in 708 AD, while archaeological findings at Viesenhäuser Hof point to human settlements from the early Stone Age. The Veitskapelle, built in 1380, shows that the region had become a significant settlement area by the Middle Ages.
The name Mühlhausen refers to its medieval role as a location for mills along the Neckar River. Today, residential areas and green spaces form the everyday landscape where people live and spend their time.
The district is well connected by public transportation, with several light rail lines and bus routes linking all neighborhoods together. Visitors can easily explore the different areas on foot or by tram.
