Kunstgebäude Stuttgart, Art venue and museum in Stuttgart-Mitte, Germany.
The Kunstgebäude Stuttgart is an art venue and museum in Stuttgart's city center with exhibition spaces on multiple levels. The building contains galleries that display contemporary works and host cultural events throughout the year.
The building opened in 1906 following architect Theodor Fischer's design and was constructed on the site where the royal theater had stood before it burned in 1902. The structure survived damage during World War II and was restored afterward.
The building serves as home to the Württembergischer Kunstverein, which organizes exhibitions that bring together artists from the region and beyond. Visitors encounter a space dedicated to showing how contemporary art connects people across different backgrounds and perspectives.
The venue is open to visitors on most days, with regular exhibition hours and occasional extended hours on certain weekdays. It helps to check ahead which exhibitions are currently on display and what times apply for your visit.
A gilded deer sculpture by Ludwig Habich crowns the building's dome and can be spotted from various points across the city. This sculpture is often overlooked by visitors but adds a distinctive silhouette to this cultural landmark.
