Located on a scenic vantage point a few miles outside of Stuttgart's city center, Schloss Solitude (Solitude Palace) was built for Duke Karl Eugen in 1763 as a hunting lodge and summer residence.
Designed in the late Rococo and early Neoclassical styles, the most sumptuously decorated rooms are in the central pavilion.
Its highlight is the radiant Weisse Saal (White Hall) with its lovely domed roof, intricate decorative gold work, and frescoed ceiling.
