Visit Schloss Solitude: Stuttgart’s Most Picturesque Spot
Stuttgart’s city center, with its few preserved heritage buildings, might not be as charming as Nuremberg, where you’d want to take photos at every corner. However, that doesn’t mean it lacks picture-perfect beauty. Take Schloss Solitude, for instance—you can’t visit without capturing a photo here. Let me tell you more about it.
Schloss Solitude Summary
Schloss Solitude, set in the hills just outside Stuttgart, feels like stepping into a romantic piece of history.

Once the summer residence of Duke Charles Eugene of Württemberg, it’s the perfect escape from the modern buzz of the city.
Though smaller than the grand palaces in places like Munich, its unique blend of Rococo and Neoclassical styles gives it undeniable charm, especially for anyone who loves architecture. The symmetry of the design is particularly striking, making it a remarkable attraction.
The palace is so lovely that many people consider it one of the best spots for wedding photos. A quick search on Instagram or Facebook for Schloss Solitude will show a number of pictures of couples getting married with the palace as their stunning backdrop.
The setting makes it even more special. With its elevated position and surrounding forests, the views are stunning. Standing in the gardens, you can almost picture the duke preparing for a day of hunting. But the most romantic spot might just be the view through the middle arch of the palace, framed beautifully by its two outer wings—it’s a view that stays with you long after you leave.
Visitors are welcomed inside the palace but are required to join a guided tour to do so.
