Königin-Olga-Bau
Königin-Olga-Bau stands in Stuttgart between Königstraße, Bolzstraße, and Stauffenbergstraße, beside Schlossplatz. Its ground floor contains commercial spaces, while the building presents a smooth natural-stone facade. A flat roof crowns the structure. A two-storey pavilion completes the composition.
Lambert & Stahl designed the original 1893 complex after earlier classical houses were demolished. Shops and arcades once occupied its base zone. Severe Second World War damage left only the outer walls, so reconstruction began in 1948. Architect Paul Schmitthenner shaped the rebuilt form.
Erich Hengerer also contributed to a design balancing traditional elements with post-war modernism. The first rebuilt section was completed in 1951. The second section followed in 1954, making this the first completed post-war building on Schlossplatz. Today, it remains a protected historic monument in Stuttgart.
