(1) L2 is the old opera-house, the “Staatstheater” in Stuttgart taken from across the lake
in the castle gardens (Schlossgarten) see the link below. It was damaged and restored
and the ballet and the opera ensemble are today very famous.

(1) L8 is the Stiftskirche in Stuttgart in proximity of the old city hall (you can see the tower of the city hall in the background).
The Stiftskirche has been rebuilt after the war. Here are two pictures, one after the bombing and a recent one.

L-9
(1) L9 is the new castle in Stuttgart – new as in “only” 250 years old, compared to the old castle which is much older.
I tried to find a picture taken from the same angle – this is as close as I could get.

if you pass by the building on the left hand side of the picture you would get to the lake and the opera-house.
