Just
a few miles north of Stuttgart sits the quaint town of Freiberg
am Neckar, with approximately 15,000 inhabitants. Freiberg boasts
a rich display of German culture and history, with the old and
new Amanduskirche dating back to the 13th and 16th century respectively.
Stuttgart, the city located between forests and vineyards, is
an urban community in Southwest Germany.
As the state capital of Baden-Württemberg, Stuttgart is
not only

|
an
industrial city with world famous automobile companies and state-of-the-art
science and research facilities; Stuttgart is also a cultural
city that has made a name for itself through its renowned State
Opera and ballet programs, and the exceptional art collections
at the State Gallery and the Gallery of Stuttgart.
Stuttgart's main attractions are clearly the hilly landscape,
the numerous vineyards that stretch all the way to the city
center, the many parks that make Stuttgart one of the greenest
cities in Germany and the mineral water fountains that characterize
this region as having the largest source of mineral water in
Western Europe.
