The glass cube of the Kunstmuseum Stuttgart is located in the middle of the city on Schlossplatz and will immediately catch your eye. The museum has been open since 2005 and its collection extends underground in an old tunnel system. Here you will find art ranging from Swabian Impressionism and classical modernism to current contemporary art. In addition to large exhibitions, there are also smaller shows and fresh, young art in the "Frischzelle". The Haus der Geschichte Baden-Württemberg is another spot you shouldn't miss. Since 2002, this has been Germany's first political and historical state museum. The exhibitions show the history of the state in a pretty exciting way - and the team has been organizing projects throughout southwest Germany since the 90s. The Württemberg State Museum has several locations: the Old Palace, the New Palace and the aforementioned House of History Baden-Württemberg. The museum is packed with medieval art, baroque furniture and many historical treasures. Here you can get a really good insight into the history and culture of the region. If you are more interested in cultures from all over the world, the Linden Museum is for you.

Then head to the Stuttgart Planetarium! The Carl Zeiss Planetarium has been around since 1927 and is one of the top addresses for anyone who loves stars, planets and galaxies. The shows are super interactive and educational, perfect for families or simply if you want to experience something new. Located right next to the Staatsgalerie, you can easily stroll through Rosenstein Park afterwards.

Here, artists regularly show their work, talk about art and organize exhibitions. The house is managed on a voluntary basis and is firmly anchored in Stuttgart's art scene. And another tip: the StadtPalais is not just a museum, but a really lively place that brings together urban culture, history and the future. Here you can learn all about Stuttgart from the past to the present and hang out at events or parties. If you're into nature and science, you should visit the Naturkundemuseum Stuttgart. The collection is one of the largest in Europe and shows the diversity of life with exciting exhibitions.
