The Linden-Museum is Stuttgart’s major ethnological museum, with collections from Africa, Asia, Oceania, and the Americas. Like many European museums of its type, it is also a place to think critically about collecting, colonial histories, and how cultures are represented.
It is a substantial museum and worth more than a quick look if the current exhibitions are strong. Pair it with Stuttgart’s art and design museums for a broader cultural day that goes well beyond cars and palaces.
