It may not be one of the most famous cities in Germany, but I’ve been to Stuttgart a few times and love everything it offers!

Michael Turtle – TIME TRAVEL TURTLE

When you’re planning a trip to Germany, it’s pretty normal to include the big cities – Berlin, Munich, Frankfurt, maybe even Hamburg. But poor little Stuttgart is so often left off the itinerary of a normal travellers.

It’s a shame, because Stuttgart actually has so much to offer visitors – from the famous Mercedes-Benz Museum, to the beautiful Ludwigsburg Palace, and even a museum about pigs!

Stuttgart is a city with a beating heart and you’ll see that in the pride that’s gone into the wonderful art museums, the interesting historical buildings, and the enormous annual beer festival the Cannstattter Volksfest.

If you’re interested in exploring the region – and I recommend you do – then Stuttgart is also a great base, with good transport links and convenient accommodation options. You can easily get to places like Maulbronn Monastery, Baden Baden, or Hohenzollern Castle.
