- Fellbach officially bears the title 'Stadt der Weine' (City of Wines) due to its centuries-old tradition of viticulture on the Kappelberg hillside.
- The city is a significant cultural center in the Rems-Murr district, hosting the Fellbach Triennial, a major international exhibition for small-scale sculpture.
- Despite its proximity to Stuttgart, Fellbach maintains a distinct administrative identity and was only elevated to the status of 'Große Kreisstadt' in 1956.
- The city's urban development is uniquely influenced by its location at the transition between the Stuttgart basin and the rolling hills of the Schurwald.
