 The name of the hill was originally the "Ameisenberg" ("Ant Hill"), but in 1862 the name of a park was given to the whole area.Together with the districts of Gaisburg, Berg, Gablenberg, Ostheim, Frauenkopf, Stöckach and Gänsheide, it has been part of the inner city district of Stuttgart-Ost since 2001.The Uhlandshöhe lies roughly in the triangle formed by the city centre, the historic quarter of Bad Cannstatt (on the River Neckar) and the Gänsheide.
