Wine lovers will not be disappointed when they visit Stuttgart. Not only is it Germany’s fifth largest wine-growing location, it also has a Wine Village that has become extremely popular with visitors to the region. The Village is made up of more than 120 vine-covered huts on the market square. There is a wine museum at Uhlbach that includes an exhibition about the wine-growing culture from Roman times to present day. At the end of August until the beginning of September each year around 350 different wines from Wurttemburg can be sampled by visitors to the Wine Village. Wine walks and tours can be easily arranged. People travel from all over the world to see how wine is produced in Stuttgart. The most common grapes grown in the region are Muller Thurgau, Kerner and Silvaner.
The best way to enjoy a visit to the Wine Village is make it a two-day event and book into one of the Stuttgart hotels that are close to the facility.
