Haus der Geschichte Baden-Württemberg
At Stuttgart’s Kulturmeile, Haus der Geschichte Baden-Württemberg occupies part of the Stirling-Wilford architectural ensemble. Wheelchair access makes the museum easier to explore. Founded in 1987, it connects regional history with questions shaping life in Baden-Württemberg.
The permanent exhibition unfolds in three sections, moving from regional symbols to two centuries of political and social change. Twenty-six objects form an alphabet of Baden-Württemberg. The chronological route begins with the Reichsdeputationshauptschluss of 1803 and continues towards the present. It includes the territorial revolution, the Vormärz period, and the region’s integration into the national state.
Current questions gain historical context through displays on nature, migration, religion, family, economy, science and research. Special exhibitions, workshops and educational programmes extend that perspective for schoolchildren and language learners. An extensive regional collection includes historical artefacts and photographs undergoing digitisation for preservation and access.
