Since 2014 Stuttgart's "i-Punkt" has held certification from the German Tourism Association (DTV) as one of Germany's most up-to-date tourist information centres. Thanks to its ideal location directly opposite the main railway station and its ability to provide fast, transparent, tailor-made information, it is popular with visitors and locals alike. One of its highlights is the over 10-metre-long touch wall, which also gives insights into the tourism options in the Stuttgart Region.
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, or delicious Hochland coffee beans 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 from Thursday to Saturday on Palace Square during the warmer months – and sometimes also in winter, depending on the weather. 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 Television Tower. The modern presentation area – with monitors and touch screens – is intended to whet visitors' appetites for more of the region's tourism highlights.
