Stuttgart Hauptbahnhof is the primary railway station in Stuttgart, Germany, and a key part of the city's transport infrastructure. It is renowned for its 12-storey tower topped with a rotating Mercedes-Benz star, making it a city landmark. Located at the northeastern end of the Königstraße, the station is a major hub for both regional and long-distance trains, as well as the Stuttgart S-Bahn and Stadtbahn networks. Currently undergoing transformation as part of the Stuttgart 21 project, the station is being converted from an above-ground terminus into an underground through station. This project has sparked significant public debate due to its impact on the historic building designed by Paul Bonatz.
