Rathaus Stuttgart, City hall in Stuttgart-Mitte, Germany
The Stuttgart City Hall features a limestone and coral rock facade with large rectangular windows and rises 60.5 meters into the Stuttgart skyline.
The current building, completed in 1956, replaced the previous town hall that suffered extensive damage during the 1944 World War II bombing raids.
The tower houses a set of 30 bells weighing up to 950 kilograms that play traditional Swabian folk songs five times throughout the day.
The administrative building contains 220 offices, three meeting halls with the largest accommodating 520 people, and serves approximately 270 municipal employees.
Three continuously moving paternoster elevators transport visitors through the four floors of the building without requiring doors or stopping mechanisms.

This ranking includes the most populous cities in Europe in 2025, from Moscow with 11.62 million inhabitants to Budapest with 1.7 million. It features major European capitals like London, Berlin, Madrid, Rome, and Paris, as well as Saint Petersburg, Vienna, and Hamburg. These metropolitan areas are the continent's main demographic centers, each with its own history, architecture, and legacy. The selection is based on the municipal population of each city. Some cities surprise with their size, such as London, which covers an area fourteen times larger than Paris, or Rome, which extends over a territory twelve times greater than the French capital. Others are distinguished by their major economic roles, such as Hamburg, which hosts Germany's largest port, or by their internationally recognized quality of life, like Vienna. These destinations invite exploration of European urban diversity from east to west.
