The Württembergisches Landesmuseum fills the Altes Schloss on Schlossplatz with the history and material culture of Württemberg. The collection ranges from prehistoric finds and classical antiquities to royal objects, religious art, clocks, glass, and everyday pieces from the region's later history.
The setting is part of the draw: the Old Castle's arcaded courtyard gives the museum a strong sense of place before you even enter the galleries. It is one of Stuttgart's best stops for understanding the city beyond cars and modern industry.
