The Milchbar stands in Stuttgart’s Höhenpark Killesberg as a postwar modernist building, designed by architect Rolf Gutbrod in 1950. Its original purpose was the German Garden Show.

A gently curved staircase follows the natural slope between two side walls made from red sandstone. Delicate steel profiles support the building’s transparent glass front.

The design joins technical construction with organic forms, balancing openness and security within one compact structure. The café also hosts weddings and private parties.

Corporate events and legendary Schlager parties add uses beyond the café within Killesberg Park. The park offers scenic landscapes around the building.

Killesberg Park was rebuilt after World War Two and became a symbol of hope and renewal in Stuttgart. The park reflects Stuttgart’s history of postwar rebuilding.

Architecture students and visitors examine the Milchbar’s elegant simplicity and the relationship between glass, sandstone and steel. These materials give the building a clear identity.
