The silence in the valley next to the river Neckar, surrounded by many hills and vineyards as symbols of the city, is always interrupted when a football match is played in Stuttgart.
Many clubs in Germany have fantastic support from the stands, and among the fans who are especially passionate and noisy are those who come from the city of Mercedes.
In addition to its famous car brand, Stuttgart is also considered the city of football, and it was the stadium where the Euro will be played that somehow marked the beginning of the new footballing Germany.
It was at this temple that the "manshaft" played its first match after the Second World War - it was in 1950 against Switzerland when a record 96.400 fans followed the match.
The stadium in Stuttgart often changed names - among others it was called "Gottlib Daimler" and "Mercedes Benz arena" - while it will be the host of major competitions for the fourth time, after the 1974 and 2006 World Cups and Euro 1988.
The largest city of the province of Baden-Württemberg is often considered the metropolis of Swabia - the historical and linguistic province.
Just ten kilometers from the center of Stuttgart is the Ludwigsburg Palace, which is also called the "Versailles of Swabia" because of its beauty and baroque gardens.
