KUNSTMUSEUM STUTTGART

The Kunstmuseum Stuttgart was opened in March 2005 right in the heart of Stuttgart and since then has offered visitors regularly changing exhibitions and collections. The glass construction makes the museum a real eye-catcher and can be described as a Stuttgart landmark. A disused tunnel system made it possible to expand the exhibition space to 5000 square metres. Top: Otto Dix works, regular special exhibitions. Centrally located on Schlossplatz, in the middle of Königstraße, the “Kubus” offers not only art but also a café and a restaurant with a special view over the city.
