How safe is Stuttgart for solo female travelers?

Travel safety index

3.7 /5

based on 3 experiences from female travelers

Solo travel

Stuttgart was beautiful, the clubs were amazing, and the people were very friendly. It's just that you have to expect that most of them have a German mentality. That means if you visit them, they won't offer you any food ✌🏻 but apart from that it was really great.

Stayed near the train station and felt safe walking around in the night (10pm or so). Main shopping street is lively even in the evening. Nice Central Park to sit and soak in the view. Try the local dishes like dumplings in soup and roast with potato dumplings.

Stuttgart is a very safe city for solo women travelers and is really easy to get around. Extremely diverse and plenty of places to explore (food, drinks, history). Definitely check out Stuttgart if you are in Germany.

I've never felt unsafe in Stuttgart. There are some areas near the central train station where people could be drinking alcohol, being loud and give you strange vibes. But if you ignore them they will ignore you.

Generally very safe. Avoid the trainstation at night and the stadium after a game. Don’t be overly careless, there are definitely bad people too, especially when drunk. But if you have sense and trust your gut, it’s normally pretty safe. Catcalling does happen tho especially near the Schloßplatz at night.

Stuttgart is generally a safe place, but attacks on women do happen occasionally. If you're alone, it's best to avoid the smaller streets in the immediate vicinity of the city center/main train station, especially after dark. If necessary, take a taxi, even if the distance isn't far. Better safe than sorry.
