Certainly one of the most unusual things to do in Stuttgart — or in any German city — is a visit to the Pig Museum.
If there is any form of art that depicts a pig, you'll find it here, from finely worked sculptures and masterly pastoral paintings to china knick-knacks and a pink papier-mâché pig princess in a tulle tutu.
The more than 50,000 pigs from all over the world are displayed creatively and with a sense of humor, filling 29 themed rooms.
An entire room is devoted to piggy banks, another to stuffed toys, and an attic-like room is devoted to larger pieces of fork art. Exhibits with signs in English and German explore everything from pig history and science to mythology.
