The "i-Punkt" Tourist Information at Marktstraße 2 in the House of Tourism and the mobile i-Bike are the first ports of call for Stuttgart's inhabitants and international visitors alike. Here, the “i-Punkt” team has tips and suggestions galore – and in all the most important languages: German, English, French, Italian, Spanish, Catalan, Portuguese, Greek, Polish and Dutch. Printed matter and personal advice on tourism offers in the Stuttgart Region and throughout Baden-Württemberg are geared to the specific needs of foreign, domestic and regional guests.

 Services:

  • Tourist information on places of interest
  • Individual and multilingual visitor assistance
  • Tickets for city walks and guided tours
  • Hotel accommodation service
  • StuttCard Discovery Tickets
  • Advance ticket sales and tips for events
  • Stuttgart souvenirs and culinary specialities, wines and spirits from the region

  • VfB Fan Shop (fan merchandise and VfB tickets)

Thanks to its ideal location directly on the market square and its ability to provide fast, transparent, tailor-made information, the i-Punkt is popular with visitors and locals alike. Highlights include the impressive 180-degree LED wall, which sets the mood for the region’s tourism diversity with emotional films, as well as the wine finder, which helps connoisseurs find the perfect bottle.

At the "i-Punkt" priority is given to an assortment of goods which are typical of the region. This is why delectable, world-famous RITTER SPORT chocolate made in Waldenbuch, delicious Hochland coffee beans, as well as products from the two automotive museums of Mercedes-Benz and Porsche  are on sale here. Fans of the local VfB-Stuttgart football club will find plenty to interest them here at the VfB Shop, too.

Since October 2019 the "i-Bike" has been providing visitors to Stuttgart with information on the city's tourist attractions This striking three-wheeled mobile information centre can be found on Palace Square from April to the end of October, Thursday through Saturday, weather permitting. On board: city maps in several different languages and various brochures, including information on the StuttCard, the Stuttgart Citytour and bookable guided city walks and tours. The bright red i-Bike is not only an eye-catcher but also shapes the cityscape. One of its special extras is the table with a large plan of the city – ideal for getting your bearings and planning your visit.

In addition to the two "i-Punkt" information centres, the Stuttgart-Marketing GmbH also provides information on offers in the Stuttgart Region in the foyer of the SWR Television Tower Stuttgart. The modern presentation area – with monitors and touch screens – is intended to whet visitors' appetites for more of the region's tourism highlights.
