Monaco di Baviera: Mostra speciale "Stazione Centrale di Stoccarda"

Suggerimento: Stoccarda 21 a Monaco

Suggerimento per la mostra: Stuttgart 21 a Monaco di Baviera

Il Centro Trasporti del Deutsches Museum presenta una mostra speciale sulla nuova Stazione Centrale di Stoccarda: da qui si può già godere di una vista a 360° della sala dei binari sotterranei, un must per gli appassionati di ferrovie

Fino al 7 ottobre 2025: Mostra speciale "Stazione Centrale di Stoccarda" presso il Centro Trasporti del Deutsches Museum, Alter Messeplatz, dietro la statua della Baviera a Monaco di Baviera (di fronte al ristorante del Bavaria Park con birreria all'aperto e parco giochi).

Monaco di Baviera. Museo ferroviario sopra il prato dell'Oktoberfest dietro la scultura della Baviera: Un'opera architettonica di grande valore è in mostra: Stuttgart 21, probabilmente il cantiere più famoso della Germania, è attualmente esposto e visitabile nel Centro Trasporti del Deutsches Museum di Monaco di Baviera. La nuova Stazione Centrale di Stoccarda è in costruzione nel cuore del capoluogo del Baden-Württemberg da oltre 15 anni. I primi treni dovrebbero entrare in funzione alla fine dell'anno, mentre l'inaugurazione ufficiale è prevista per il 2026. Nel Centro Trasporti del Deutsches Museum è già possibile scoprire di più sulla stazione e ammirare a 360° la sala sotterranea dei binari.

"Stazione Centrale di Stoccarda" è il semplice titolo della nuova mostra speciale.

Nella galleria del Padiglione III, foto, filmati, grafici e due grandi modelli creano l'immagine di una stazione che, con la sua combinazione di architettura, tecnologia e sostenibilità, è esemplare per i nostri tempi. Il pezzo forte della mostra è una rotonda alta più di quattro metri e con un diametro di quasi dieci metri, che offre ai visitatori una vista panoramica del cantiere della stazione sotterranea.

Inoltre, tre monitor offrono un mix di interviste e immagini in movimento per approfondire il processo di progettazione e costruzione della stazione. Un tavolo luminoso lungo sette metri mostra un'infografica su vari aspetti del progetto, tra cui la sua importanza per il trasporto ferroviario tedesco ed europeo e le prospettive di sviluppo urbano offerte dalla stazione sotterranea in superficie. In mostra sono esposti un grande modello in sezione della stazione e un modello di un "supporto a calice". Questi supporti a calice non solo caratterizzano l'architettura dell'edificio, ma forniscono anche illuminazione e ventilazione naturali per l'atrio dei binari.


"Stoccarda 21 e la sua stazione principale rappresentano, come pochi altri progetti, le attuali sfide che i grandi progetti infrastrutturali nelle società democratiche si trovano ad affrontare", afferma Frank Zwintzscher, curatore del trasporto ferroviario presso il Deutsches Museum. Questi progetti sono complessi, costosi, lunghi e spesso conflittuali, un aspetto che è stato a lungo al centro dell'attenzione, soprattutto con il progetto di Stoccarda. "Ora la costruzione è completata e il risultato concreto sta diventando visibile: un imponente edificio della stazione con un altissimo livello di design e tecnologia", afferma Zwintzscher. "Vogliamo dare ai nostri visitatori l'opportunità di farsi un'idea e di formarsi una propria opinione."

La mostra è stata realizzata in collaborazione con "christoph ingenhoven architects" e il Centro Trasporti del Deutsches Museum

Christoph Ingenhoven, il cui studio di architettura ha progettato la stazione, sottolinea l'ambizione ambiziosa del progetto: "Il cuore della città di Stoccarda sarà la futura stazione principale con le sue piazze circostanti. Si sta creando un nuovo centro che cambierà in meglio e in modo sostenibile l'intera area."


La mostra è accompagnata da un ampio programma collaterale, incentrato sulla costruzione di stazioni. A partire da Stuttgart 21 e dalla nuova stazione centrale, verrà affrontato l'attuale dibattito sul futuro della ferrovia, tra ponti fatiscenti e gli annunciati "miliardi per le infrastrutture". "Come possiamo concordare oggi su cosa verrà costruito, dove e come domani? Perché abbiamo così tante difficoltà con i grandi progetti? Come possiamo realizzare infrastrutture sostenibili in questo Paese? E quanto valgono per noi un buon design e punti di riferimento? Vorremmo discutere di questioni come queste con rappresentanti del mondo scientifico, politico, economico e sociale nei prossimi mesi", afferma Zwintzscher.

La mostra speciale "Stazione Centrale di Stoccarda"

durerà fino al 7 ottobre 2025

The Deutsches Museum's Transport Center is presenting a special exhibition on the new Stuttgart Central Station – here you can already enjoy a 360° view of the underground platform hall – a must-see for railway enthusiasts

Until October 7, 2025: Special exhibition "Stuttgart Central Station" in the Deutsches Museum's Transport Center – Alter Messeplatz behind the Bavaria statue in Munich (opposite the Inn at Bavaria Park with a beer garden and playground)

Munich. Station Architecture of the future - experience it now: Stuttgart 21 – arguably Germany's most famous construction site – is currently on display and can be experienced in the Deutsches Museum's Transport Center in Munich. The new Stuttgart Central Station has been under construction in the heart of the Baden-Württemberg state capital for more than 15 years. The first trains are scheduled to run here at the end of the year – the grand opening is planned for 2026. In the Deutsches Museum's Transport Center, you can already learn about the station and enjoy a 360° view of the underground platform hall.

"Stuttgart Central Station" is the simple title of the new special exhibition.

In the gallery in Hall III, photos, films, graphics, and two large models create a picture of a station that, with its combination of architecture, technology, and sustainability, is exemplary for our time. The highlight of the exhibition is a rotunda more than four meters high and almost ten meters in diameter, offering visitors a panoramic view of the underground station construction site.

In addition, three monitors provide a mix of interviews and moving images to learn more about the design process and construction of the station. A seven-meter-long light table displays an infographic on various aspects of the project – including its significance for German and European rail transport and the urban development perspective offered by the underground station above ground. A large cutaway model of the station is on display in the exhibition, as is a model of a "chalice support." These chalice supports not only characterize the architecture of the building but also provide natural lighting and ventilation for the platform concourse.

 

"Stuttgart 21 and its main station represent, like few other projects, the current challenges facing large-scale infrastructure projects in democratic societies," says Frank Zwintzscher, Curator of Rail Transport at the Deutsches Museum. These projects are complex, expensive, lengthy, and often fraught with conflict, which has long been the focus of attention, especially with the Stuttgart project. "Now construction is complete, and the concrete result is becoming visible: an impressive station building with a very high level of design and technology," says Zwintzscher. "We want to give our visitors the opportunity to gain an impression of it and form their own opinion."

The exhibition was created in collaboration with "christoph ingenhoven architects" and the Deutsches Museum's Transport Center.

Christoph Ingenhoven, whose architectural firm designed the station, emphasizes the project's ambitious ambition: "The heart of the city of Stuttgart will be the future main station with its surrounding squares. A new center is being created that will sustainably change the entire area for the better."

 

An extensive supporting program is planned for the exhibition, which focuses on station construction. Starting with Stuttgart 21 and the new main station, the current debate about the future of the railway, between dilapidated bridges and the announced "billions for infrastructure," will be addressed. "How can we agree today on what will be built, where, and how tomorrow? Why do we have such a hard time with major projects? How can we achieve a sustainable infrastructure in this country? And what are good design and landmarks worth to us? We would like to discuss questions like these with representatives from science, politics, business, and society in the coming months," says Zwintzscher.

Thoughtful emptiness in the Bavaria Park around the Old Trade Fair Square

Munich. The 2020s in Munich began with thoughtful emptiness and compliance with the exit restrictions shows the strength of character of the people of Munich! We visit different places and places in order to offer Munich residents and tourists, who are understandably not allowed to travel these weeks, a new view of their beautiful city on the computer.
In the last few days, for example, we visited the Old Trade Fair Square: the square square on Schwanthalerhöhe has been a popular meeting place for the public since 1999. It connects three listed halls that were once part of the exhibition center. The floor covering, dolomite from the Altmühltal, a light limestone, shines in the sun. In these days around April 2020, slowness had priority in Munich. What could represent this fact more beautifully than a snail:
the snail sculpture “Sweet Brown Snail” on the “Alten Messeplatz” in Bavariapark.

Today the exhibits from the German Museum's transport center are located in the old measuring halls.

Few people walk, ride bikes or play with their children. Around the old halls of the former Munich Trade Fair we find views that let us feel the beauty of the hall architecture.

Sweet Brown Snail

On the 23,000 square meter area of ​​the Old Trade Fair Square there is a 4.50 meter high snail sculpture with the beautiful title “Sweet Brown Snail”.

It was once conceived and installed as an art-in-building project by the American artists Jason Rhoades and Paul McCarthy.

 

This giant snail ironically embodies man's dream of speed.

Classics of mobility

In connection with the transport museum, when you see the animal, you may also think of caravan culture and the idea of ​​the portable house.

A train of thought that brings us back to the Transport Museum, a museum for the classics of mobility by rail or road from over 150 years:
including motor vehicles, various original locomotives, trams as well as passenger cars and historic bicycles.

Tavern at Bavariapark

Directly opposite is the Bavariapark with the Augustiner beer garden of the Wirtshaus am Bavariapark and the former congress hall, where events such as the comic fair take place.

By the way, the Old Trade Fair Square is part of Munich's Westend and, as already mentioned, is located on the Schwanthalerhöhe, between Theresienhöhe with Bavaria and Schießstättstrasse.

An insider tip among Munich residents

When the weather is nice, the beer garden at the “Wirtshaus am Bavariapark” is considered an insider tip among Munich residents.

Located directly at the park, its 850 seats and the Augustiner beer, its service and self-service area invite you to linger.

Bavariapark complex was once called “Theresienhain”

The Bavariapark planting and layout was commissioned by King Ludwig I between 1825 and 1831 as the “Theresienhain”. His court gardener Seitz planted oak trees in the park.


If you do sports here from a sufficient distance, you can discover, among other things, a bronze deer and two bronze horses.
