Stuttgart Hauptbahnhof, Railway station in Stuttgart, Germany
Stuttgart Hauptbahnhof serves as the central transportation hub, connecting regional trains, intercity services, S-Bahn lines, and U-Bahn networks across Baden-Württemberg.
The station started operations in 1922, replacing the previous terminal from 1868, and underwent substantial reconstruction following damages during World War II.
The modernist architecture of Stuttgart Hauptbahnhof, designed by Paul Bonatz, represents a milestone in German railway station construction of the 20th century.
Passengers can access seven S-Bahn lines, fourteen U-Bahn routes, and numerous regional connections through automated ticket machines available in multiple languages.
The station features a distinctive tower standing 56 meters high, constructed with limestone blocks and functioning as a recognizable landmark in Stuttgart's cityscape.

Stuttgart, the capital of Baden-Württemberg, features a blend of architectural and industrial heritage from the Middle Ages to modern times. The city hosts two car museums: the Mercedes-Benz Museum with 160 vehicles across nine floors, and the Porsche Museum tracing the brand's history since 1948. The historic city center is organized around Schlossplatz, dominated by the baroque New Castle from 1746, and Schillerplatz, where a bronze statue of the poet stands. The Old Castle, a former medieval fortress now housing a regional museum, is situated near modern structures like the municipal library, a nine-story white cube recognizable by its central atrium. Green spaces punctuate the urban fabric, from Killesberg Park to the castle gardens, while Feuersee, a former fire brigade pond from 1882, reflects the neo-Gothic St. John’s Church. The Market Hall of 1914, decorated with floral and geometric motifs, offers local produce and dining options. Worth a visit are the surroundings: Esslingen am Neckar preserves 200 medieval timber-framed houses and a 13th-century church dedicated to Saint-Denis, while Ludwigsburg Palace displays the baroque art of living in southern Germany.
