Stuttgart - 18 stops - par 56

Banking a ball off the stone facades of the Altes Schloss requires a steady hand and a bit of luck. This round takes place in Stuttgart, using the actual city map and its real streets as the course. The holes are built directly into the city's attractions, and a few portals help the ball skip across the 10.9 km walk. It is a full 18-hole round with a par of 56. Skip knows every nook of these pavements and will be the local guide.

THE STUTTGART ROUND - STOP BY STOP

HOLE 1 - PAR 3

Altes Schloss

Altes Schloss is a castle in Stuttgart. Construction began in 950, and the building is designed in the Renaissance architecture style. You can find it on the Schillerplatz, where it now serves as the home of the Landesmuseum Württemberg. Additionally, the castle church functions as a place of worship for those visiting the site. I have always found that the scale of the building makes it one of the most distinct spots in the square, standing out against the surrounding city streets.

HOLE 2 - PAR 3

Staatsgalerie

James Stirling is the mind behind the Neue Staatsgalerie, which opened in 1984. This building is a key part of the Staatsgalerie, an art museum located in Stuttgart. While the newer section is a modern standout, the institution has a much longer history, with the original Staatsgalerie opening in 1843. It is a great spot to see how different eras of architecture and art can live side by side in one place. I usually find the contrast between the old and new sections quite striking from the air.

HOLE 3 - PAR 3

StadtPalais

The first thing you'll notice is the Wilhelm Palais, which houses the StadtPalais museum. This building was the former residence of Württembergs last King William II. Today, it is home to the Stadtmuseum Stuttgart, a museum about the history of Stuttgart that opened in April of 2018. Before the museum arrived, the building served a different civic purpose; the Stadtbibliothek Stuttgart, the public library of the city, was housed here from 1965 until 2011. I've always found it interesting how one building can switch from a royal home to a library and then to a museum.

Kunstmuseum

Let me show you the Kunstmuseum Stuttgart. This art museum is a 26-meter-high building designed by Hascher Jehle Architektur. It operates as a nonprofit organization and opened in 2005. You can pick out the scale of its popularity here, as it welcomes 330,000 annual visitors to the city of Stuttgart. It is a great spot to stop and look around, offering a glimpse into the local culture of Germany. I've noticed that the crowd always keeps the area feeling lively, making it a bright point on your walk through the city center.

HOLE 5 - PAR 2

Erinnerungsort Hotel Silber

This site is not a place for guests to stay or a functioning business. It is the Erinnerungsort Hotel Silber, which is a museum and a memorial. Visitors come here to reflect on the history associated with the location. It is a dedicated space for remembrance and education. The site maintains a solemn atmosphere to ensure that the history it preserves is respected by every person who walks through its doors.

HOLE 6 - PAR 3

Neues Schloss

You can find the Neues Schloss sitting on the Schlossplatz, positioned right in front of the Königsbau and the Jubiläumssäule column. This baroque château was started in 1746 and was designed by the architect Nikolaus Friedrich von Thouret. Duke Carl Eugen of Württemberg commissioned the New Palace to replace the Old Castle, resulting in the 18th-century Baroque palace you see today. While it looks like a royal residence, the building contains some government offices. I've noticed that the wide open square makes it a great spot for people watching.

HOLE 7 - PAR 3

Leonhardskirche

You might expect a contemporary structure in this part of the city, but you will find Leonhardskirche instead. This church building is designed in the Gothic architecture style, which you can see in the details of the construction. It is a place of significance that reflects the work of its creators. Specifically, Aberlin Jörg is an architect of the church, and Rudolf Lempp is also an architect of the building. Together, their work defines the physical presence of this site for everyone who visits today.

HOLE 8 - PAR 3

Altes Schauspielhaus

Located in the heart of Stuttgart, you will find the Altes Schauspielhaus. This theatre building is a notable part of the city's architectural layout and is a site you can easily pick out while exploring the area. It was designed by architects Albert Eitel and Eugen Steigleder. I have always thought the facade makes for a great spot to watch the crowds go by from a low angle. Whether you are a fan of the performing arts or just admiring the local scenery, this building is a key stop on your journey through the city.

HOLE 9 - PAR 3

Renitenztheater

Step inside the doors of Renitenztheater, a cabaret located in Stuttgart, Baden-Württemberg. This nonprofit organization focuses on performance and satire, bringing a variety of voices to the stage for the public to enjoy. While you will often find guest appearances by singers and comedians, the theater also puts on its own satirical play each year. One of the most anticipated annual highlights is the German-Turkish cabaret week. It is a great spot to see how the city handles humor and social commentary. I've noticed the crowds here always seem ready for a good laugh.

HOLE 11 - PAR 3

Libellenbrunnen

Libellenbrunnen is a water well located here in Stuttgart. When you look at the structure, you can pick out the Art Nouveau architecture style, which is known for its elegant, curved lines and inspiration from nature. This particular well was designed by the architect Wilhelm Scholter, who brought that specific aesthetic to the city's streetscape. I find that the flowing details of this style provide a nice contrast to the more rigid lines of the surrounding buildings. It is a small but significant piece of the city's architectural history for any visitor to notice.

HOLE 12 - PAR 3

Bismarckturm Stuttgart

Bismarckturm Stuttgart is a 20-meter tall structure that serves as both a Bismarck tower and a water tower. Designed by architect Wilhelm Kreis, this building is a cultural heritage monument in Baden-Württemberg. You can pick out the distinct shape of the tower as you navigate the streets. I usually find the height makes it a great landmark for keeping your bearings in the city. It is a sturdy piece of local history that stands out against the skyline, providing a clear point of reference for visitors and locals alike.

HOLE 13 - PAR 4

Theodor-Heuss-Haus

Look closely at the facade of the Theodor-Heuss-Haus. This structure is a museum and a residential building, making it a unique stop on your walk through Stuttgart. It has been part of the city since its inception in 2002. Whether you are interested in local history or the way the city integrates private living spaces with public cultural sites, this building is a great example of that balance. I've seen plenty of nests in the eaves of buildings like this around town, though I prefer the ones with better views of the street.

HOLE 16 - PAR 4

Kriegsbergturm

Let me show you the Kriegsbergturm, an observation tower located in the city of Stuttgart. It stands at a height of 353 metres on the hill of Kriegsberg, providing a high vantage point over the region. Beyond its height, the tower is a public monument and is recognized as a cultural heritage monument in Baden-Württemberg. It is a great spot to get your bearings of the surrounding area and appreciate the local history. I have found that the breeze up here is quite refreshing for a bird on the wing, though the climb is much easier for those of us with feathers.

HOLE 17 - PAR 3

Bahnhofsturm

HOLE 18 - PAR 3

Domkirche St. Eberhard

Domkirche St. Eberhard is located in Stuttgart. This co-cathedral is dedicated to Saint Eberhard of Salzburg and has been a co-cathedral of the Roman Catholic Diocese of Rottenburg-Stuttgart since 1978. While the parish dates back to the medieval era, the physical site has a more recent history of loss and recovery. The building was mostly destroyed by Allied air raids in 1944. Following that destruction, Hugo Schlösser served as the architect for the current building, which was completed in 1955. It remains a significant site of worship within the city center.
