Inaugural visit: District Councillor Dietmar Allgaier receives the new Swiss Consul General Istvan Kocsis
District Administrator Dietmar Allgaier recently welcomed the new Swiss Consul General in Stuttgart, Istvan Kocsis, to his office. The head of the district administration said: "I am looking forward to our future cooperation. There has always been a close and trusting relationship between Switzerland and the district of Ludwigsburg: the Swiss Consulate General was based in Markgröningen for a while and many of the 33,000 Swiss nationals living in Baden-Württemberg live in the district."
