The library in Stuttgart is like a white Hogwarts... It has like every single book in it from old magazines to art books and books in every language...
25 Jahre Regierung und der 60. Geburtstag von König Wilhelm I. von Württemberg waren nötig, damit diese Säule errichtet werden durfte. Schwäbische Sparsamkeit, man gönnt sich ja sonst nichts ;-)

City Hall Stuttgart destroyed in WW II.
So ist es eben im Leben:
Gegen Ende des Zweiten Weltkrieges wurde Stuttgart bei anglo-amerikanischen Luftangriffen in weiten Teilen zerstört. Der schwerste Angriff erfolgte am 12. September 1944 durch die britische Royal Air Force auf die Stuttgarter Altstadt.
Dabei wurden 75 schwere Luftminen, 4300 Sprengbomben und 180.000 Elektrotermitstabbrandbomben abgeworfen. Dem anschließend entstehenden Feuersturm fielen mehr als 1000 Menschen zum Opfer. Insgesamt wurde Stuttgart 53 Mal angegriffen. Dabei wurden 68 % aller Gebäude zerstört und 4477 Menschen getötet.
Nach dem Krieg wurde insbesondere auf Betreiben des neuen Oberbürgermeisters Arnulf Klett beim Wiederaufbau auf historische Konstruktionen, vor allem am ehemals historischen berühmten Stuttgarter Marktplatz, weitgehend verzichtet. Große Teile der Ruinen der Stadt kamen daher auf den Trümmerberg Birkenkopf. Die Idee war, eine autogerechte Metropole für das 20. Jahrhundert zu schaffen. So wurden auch ganze Straßenzüge und Plätze, die überhaupt nicht oder sehr gering beschädigt waren, abgerissen. Im 150. Todesjahr von Friedrich Schiller wurden 1955 die letzten Reste seiner alma mater, der Hohen Karlsschule in der Nähe des Neuen Schlosses, abgetragen, um für die Verbreiterung der Bundesstraße Platz zu schaffen (Adenauerstraße).

During World War II, the centre of Stuttgart was nearly completely destroyed due to Allied air raids. Some of the most severe bombing took place in 1944 at the hands of Anglo-American bombers. The heaviest raid took place on 12 September 1944 when the Royal Air Force bombed the old town of Stuttgarter dropping over 184,000 bombs including 75 blockbusters. More than 1000 people perished in the resulting firestorm. In total Stuttgart was subjected to 53 bombing raids, resulting in the destruction of 68% of all buildings and the death of 4477 people.

Stuttgart (Swabian: Schduagert) is the capital and largest city of the German state of Baden-Württemberg. Stuttgart is located on the Neckar river in a fertile valley known locally as the "Stuttgart Cauldron." It lies an hour from the Swabian Jura and the Black Forest. Its urban area has a population of 609,219, making it the sixth largest city in Germany. 2.7 million people live in the city's administrative region and another 5.3 million people in its metropolitan area, making it the fourth largest metropolitan area in Germany. The city and metropolitan area are consistently ranked among the top 20 European metropolitan areas by GDP; Mercer listed Stuttgart as 21st on its 2015 list of cities by quality of living, innovation agency 2thinknow ranked the city 24th globally out of 442 cities and the Globalization and World Cities Research Network ranked the city as a Beta-status world city in their 2014 survey.
Since the 6th millennium BC, the Stuttgart area has been an important agricultural area and has been host to a number of cultures seeking to utilize the rich soil of the Neckar valley. The Roman Empire conquered the area in 83 AD and built a massive castrum near Bad Cannstatt, making it the most important regional centre for several centuries. Stuttgart's roots were truly laid in the 10th century with its founding by Liudolf, Duke of Swabia, as a stud farm for his warhorses. Initially overshadowed by nearby Cannstatt, the town grew steadily and was granted a charter in 1320. The fortunes of Stuttgart turned with those of the House of Württemberg, and they made it the capital of their county, duchy, and kingdom from the 15th century to 1918. Stuttgart prospered despite setbacks in the Thirty Years' War and devastating air raids by the Allies on the city and its automobile production during World War II. However, by 1952, the city had bounced back and it became the major economic, industrial, tourism and publishing centre it is today.
Stuttgart is also a transport junction, and possesses the sixth-largest airport in Germany. Several major companies are headquartered in Stuttgart, including Porsche, Bosch, Mercedes-Benz, Daimler AG, and Dinkelacker.
Stuttgart is unusual in the scheme of German cities. It is spread across a variety of hills (some of them covered in vineyards), valleys (especially around the Neckar river and the Stuttgart basin) and parks. This often surprises visitors who associate the city with its reputation as the "cradle of the automobile". The city's tourism slogan is "Stuttgart offers more". Under current plans to improve transport links to the international infrastructure (as part of the Stuttgart 21 project), the city unveiled a new logo and slogan in March 2008 describing itself as "Das neue Herz Europas" ("The new Heart of Europe"). For business, it describes itself as "Where business meets the future". In July 2010, Stuttgart unveiled a new city logo, designed to entice more business people to stay in the city and enjoy breaks in the area.
Stuttgart is a city with a high number of immigrants. According to Dorling Kindersley's Eyewitness Travel Guide to Germany, "In the city of Stuttgart, every third inhabitant is a foreigner." 40% of Stuttgart's residents, and 64% of the population below the age of five, are of immigrant background.

Neue Stadtbibliothek, Stuttgart, Germany
Stuttgart, capital of southwest Germany’s Baden-Württemberg state, is known as a manufacturing hub. Mercedes-Benz and Porsche have headquarters and museums here. The city is filled with greenspaces, which wrap around its center. Popular parks include the Schlossgarten, Rosensteinpark and Killesbergpark. Wilhelma, one of the largest zoos and botanical gardens in Europe, is just northeast of Rosenstein Castle.
Next to the New Palace of Stuttgart is the Stuttgart State Opera ("Staatstheater Stuttgart") beautifully lying in the parks of the palace in the center of Stuttgart. Both buildings are next to the "Erkensee", a lake allowing nice reflections, especially during night.
Can anyone help me how the reduce the noise in my night shots (especially the HDRs)? Thanks!
Maybe it is due to the small lens of the IS5?

The Cannstatter Volksfest is an annual three-week Volksfest (beer festival and travelling funfair) in Stuttgart, Germany. It is sometimes also referred to by foreign visitors as the Stuttgart Beer Festival, although it is actually more of an autumnal fair.
The festival takes place at the Cannstatter Wasen from late September to early October, spanning a period over three weekends, ending the second Sunday in October. The extensive Wasen area is in the Stuttgart city district of Bad Cannstatt, near the river Neckar. A smaller variant of the Stuttgart festival, the Stuttgart Spring Festival, is also held each year in Wasen.
