Turistinformation
Stuttgart
Although Stuttgart is a massive city with over 600,000 inhabitants, the city centre is easy to explore. You can take the tram or metro from Vaihingen and be in the centre in 15 minutes. The major attractions are more or less on a one kilometre line with the lively Schloßplatz on one side and the no less lively "Biergarten" in the city park on the other. In between are shopping streets, a market hall full of colourful shops and a centuries-old castle, and the lively Karlsplatz with resaturants, bars and flea market.
Mercedes-Benz Arena
The Mercedes-Benz Arena is one of the most modern football stadiums in Europe. Not only football fans and VfB Stuttgart supporters get their money's worth on the fan tour. The home ground of the "boys from Cannstatt" offers an impressive backdrop even without a Bundesliga match and is a place full of history. Here you will experience all facets of the arena on the stadium tour and enter exclusive areas. After the last homegame on the 18th of May the stadium is in 2024 not available for tours anymore due to the organization of the European Championship in June.
