Tagblatt-Turm, Modern architecture skyscraper in Stuttgart-Mitte, Germany
The Tagblatt-Turm is a modern high-rise in Stuttgart-Mitte featuring 18 floors and a height of 68 meters (223 feet) with reinforced concrete structure and broad windows. The building houses office spaces combined with theater and cultural venues that serve different purposes.
Built between 1924 and 1928, the tower was designed by architect Ernst Otto Osswald and became South Germany's first high-rise using exposed concrete construction. The building started as newspaper headquarters before transforming into its current cultural function.
The tower hosts cultural events and theater performances that bring artists and visitors to this active space throughout the year. People come here to experience shows and programs that happen regularly within and around the building.
The building sits at Eberhardstraße 61 in a central location and is easy to reach on foot or by public transport. Theater and cultural events take place regularly throughout the week, so timing your visit around the program works well.
The tower needed special permission to exceed Stuttgart's height restriction of 20 meters (65 feet) during the 1920s, which set a precedent for future tall buildings. This approval opened the door for other high-rises to be built in the city afterward.
