Interactive overview of development plans

Each development plan is accompanied by a justification containing explanations of the planning objectives. The specifications in the development plan are made in the form of drawings and texts. Among other things, they specify the buildable area, the distance to the neighbor, the number of stories and the shape of the roof.

Special features of Stuttgart’s construction planning law

In some areas, there are several layers of plans on top of each other - a historical development. As a rule, the most recent development plan is binding. Please note that the respective development plan may be supplemented by other development plans, which must then also be applied. Examples of this are the development plans for “entertainment venues”.

An overview of the regulations and the building grading plan can be found in the  local building regulations (opens in a new tab) of June 25, 1935, which apply in parts of the city of Stuttgart. You can view the graphic regulations in the interactive map.
