Killesberg/Weissenhofmuseum

A manifesto of modernism: in 1927, the Weissenhof Estate was built on a hill above Stuttgart in just four months. For this project, exhibition director Ludwig Mies van der Rohe brought together the 17 "most characteristic representatives of the modern movement" from five countries in Stuttgart - including Mart Stam, Le Corbusier, Walter Gropius and Hans Scharoun. They designed 33 cubic flat-roofed houses as answers to the question "How to live?". Particularly in focus: Le Corbusier's "living machines", including a semi-detached house that now houses the Weissenhof Museum. Le Corbusier's semi-detached house and detached house have been part of the UNESCO World Heritage Site since 2016, along with 16 other of his building ensembles.

Just a few minutes away, the Höhenpark Killesberg invites you to discover something completely different: Stuttgart's largest inner-city park delights visitors with its seas of flowers, water features, flamingo pond and observation tower. A park railroad, playgrounds, animal enclosures and even a nostalgic funfair await you here - a place full of relaxation and adventure.
