This Old Castle-located museum tells the story of the region from the Iron Age until the 19th…read moreCentury. Many of the overall panels are in English much most of the exhibition is in German. They probably have an English audio guide but I would rather just look. It is hard to see everything in one day. I started in the Iron Age and then was just exhausted and ran through the final century. I had low expectations for this museum and was pleasantly surprised to see that the artifacts here are high-quality and in the source location. This area really was a heartland of early human history, even the Romans had territory here. This location is also an important part of Celtic history. So much importance! This region is really (like many parts of the world) a crossroad of culture. Anyway, wear good shoes, you are walking on old marble castle floors. The lighting of the artifacts is understandably low-- it makes taking photographs nigh impossible. They DO carry a lovely coffee table book of their collection in the gift shop. Online, their complete collection appears to be archived and online for display as well. They have a lovely gift shop (with great scarves) and a cafe with coffee and food. Entrance fee is 6 Euros per adult, very reasonable.

The location inside the old castle aka palace is quite spectacular. So definitely worth a go, but…read morewell... still a museum with some more boring stuff. Sometimes in the court of the castle you can listen to open air concerts.

A must visit! [Stuttgart, Germany]…read more My brother and I took the bus to this museum and I truly enjoyed seeing the cars, the exhibits, and also learning the history and the popular culture of the MB. The exhibits range from some of the oldest automobiles ever built to legendary racing cars and futuristic research vehicles. Touching the vehicles is not allowed but sadly you see some people doing it anyway. My brother is very much into racing. We spent a good 3 hours in the museum. Brochures in various languages are available but you can also download the information on your phone and computer. We borrowed audio guide headsets. Bags, backpacks and suitcases are not allowed in the exhibit floors. We checked in our backpack inside the locker rooms. They are available free of charge. We went to the showroom and we were able to checkout and sit inside some of the MB's. These beauties are not offered for test drives. LoL! I truly enjoyed the experience! Review #4076

Massive and impressive. The Mercedes-Benz Museum in Stuttgart (their global HQ is in Stuttgart)…read morecovers more than 135 years of automotive history from the first automobile to modern innovations. The museum spans 9 floors and displays over 160 vehicles and more than 1,500 total exhibits. The building's double-helix layout guides visitors from the top floor downward through a chronological journey of technological and design evolution. Plan on spending 4+ hours to see everything at a reasonable pace. Optional audio guides in multiple languages for deeper technical detail. Highly recommended for anyone interested in automotive engineering.

I really enjoyed this museum and felt as if I learned a lot as I moved through the fossils. The…read morebiggest drawback was the lack of English support. We luckily used the Google translate option that translates pictures (recommend for overseas trips). Otherwise you would not be able to read anything. The way the museum lays out the exhibits is the best part. You move through time and see fossils, which are then depicted in a scene. The scenes are extremely realistic and they allow you to get up close. I truly enjoyed seeing all of the exhibits and wished only that there were more tranlastions with the captions.

A wonderful fossil collection, the best I've seen in Europe thus far. All the placards are in…read moreGerman but there is an audio guide, for 2 euros, with great information filled commentary. A majority of the fossils displayed are from Germany, e.g. Holzmaden, Ohmden, Solnhofen; and boy oh boy are they GREAT specimens. Don't forget to see the amber collection, just wonderful. Sad to say, but most folks just want to see the dinos.

This is something to visit when you're in Ludwigsburg. Very…read moreimpressive castle and the history behind it. Only 6 euros pp. They provide an English tour and very informative.

We were here in February, so the gardens are bare, but still a great place for a nice walk…read more We took the English language guided tour. Our guide was knowledgeable, entertaining and very friendly. Disappointed that only a small area was included on the tour. Our guide said that much of the palace was under renovation. I really enjoyed the collection of clothing - this was very unusual and interesting.
