Neuer Bau stands in Stuttgart (Stuttgart), in Baden-Württemberg, Germany. Recorded dating: 17th century. No visits are on record for this building.
The Neuer Bau was a Renaissance building erected in Stuttgart between 1599 and 1609, commissioned by Duke Friedrich I of Württemberg and designed by the architect Heinrich Schickhardt. Standing south of the Altes Schloss, it housed stables on the ground floor, a festive hall above, and the ducal armoury and art collection on the upper floors. Destroyed by fire in 1757, the structure stood as a ruin for two decades before being demolished in 1778. Nothing of it remains today; its former site is now occupied by Stuttgart's market hall.
