Stuttgart - Konrad Adenauer Strasse

 
In Charlottenplatz, with its constant flow of traffic (underpass, on several levels, for road traffic, trams and pedestrians), is the Wilhelmspalais (built by Salucci in 1840, burned down 1944, rebuilt 1964-65), residence of the last King of Württemberg, William II, now housing a collection of material on the history of the town and the Municipal Library (Städtische Bibliothek). From here Konrad-Adenauer-Strasse runs northeast.

On the right-hand side is the Landesbibliothek (Provincial Library; 1970), and farther along the street, on the left, are the Landtag (1960-61), the parliament of Baden-Württemberg (on the right, offices for members of the Landtag, 1984-87), and the State Theater (Staatstheater), an effective group consisting of two buildings originally erected by Max Littmann in 1907-12. The Grosses Haus (opera) is still Littmann's building; the Kleines Haus (theater) is a new building erected in 1960-62 to replace the original which was destroyed during the war.
