In the organizer's words:
In 1950, the city acquired the site and, on the initiative of Gustav Wais, set up the Municipal Lapidarium with over two hundred sculptures and remains of destroyed or demolished buildings in Stuttgart. Among the building fragments are a portal fragment of one of Stuttgart's oldest houses, the Old Stone House (around 1286), the entrance façade to the house of master builder Heinrich Schickardt (1596-1602), the portal of the large mill in Berg (1613) and the jasper bowl owned by Queen Olga (1858). Important sculptures include the "Nymph Group" by Johann Heinrich Dannecker (1758-1841) and the marble figure "Luna" by Adolf von Hildebrand (1847-1921).
The Municipal Lapidarium is open during the summer season between May and October. During the warmer months of the year, the enchanting atmosphere of the Lapidarium hosts musical events, readings and theater performances for adults and children.
In winter 2024/25, the Lapidarium will shine in atmospheric splendor for the first time and open its doors for evening walks and guided tours through the fascinating light installation.
