@stampfan9, does it not make more sense for the first label to be used from Italy to Germany via Stuttgart?

It would be strange to issue a label inscribed in Italian for an item posted in Germany and to be carried by a German carrier via a hub within Germany. Unless the guy sorting it would be an Italian migrant the mail might get lost.
