Stuttgart Museum of Viniculture
The Stuttgart Museum of Viniculture showcases over 2,000 years of wine history in the historic ‘Alte Kelter’ wine press, offering exhibitions and wine tastings.
Planning your visit
Stuttgart is the largest wine-producing city in Germany, with vineyards climbing the slopes inside the city limits — steep terraced ground worked by hand, and a local wine culture centred on Trollinger, a light red that Swabians drink in quantity and that is almost unknown outside the region.
The Museum of Viniculture occupies the Alte Kelter at Uhlbach, a seventeenth-century wine press house, and covers over 2,000 years of local viticulture: Roman origins, monastic cultivation, the Württemberg wine trade, and the equipment — presses, barrels, tools and the coopering that supported it.
Tastings are the natural conclusion, and the local varieties are the point since almost none are exported.
The Weinwanderweg, a marked path through the vineyards above the Neckar, starts nearby.
Allow ninety minutes with tasting. The main booking is an entry ticket with wine tasting. Current availability is shown below.
