Science... more or less; maybe the University in Vaihingen with their computer museum: http://www.informatik.uni-stuttgart.de/ifi/cs/cm.html Unfortunately, it has opened only at tuesday afternoon. But if there are more people (five?) I believe we can arrange a special opening :-) I know the people who are managing the museum are happy about visitors, especially if they want to see the pdp-8. > Places where > prominent old natural philosophers worked?

I For railfans: http://www.utecht.de/bahn/Denkmal/70000.htm - there is a train museum in Feuerbach. > Which is more interesting for a daytrip, Esslingen (where the GUADEC > tour goes) or T�bingen? Both cities don't last for a _daytrip_ I'd say; since you can go through Esslingen and Tuebingen within three hours more or less. In Tuebingen you have the old city and the Neckar, in Esslingen you have a beautiful Castle on top of the city. if you go early, you should start with Esslingen and take Tuebingen in the Afternoon. > Or even Heidelberg (which is only 40 min by train from Stuttgart)? Heidelberg is nice for a daytrip I'd guess. It is larger than Esslingen or Tuebingen and has more tourist points.
