More information on Museo Ferroviario

In the old Campo Marzio station, opened in 1906 by the Archduke Francesco Ferdinando, this museum tells the story of the evolution of railway transport through the use of documents, photos, models, videos, locomotives, carriages and more than 1500 books dedicated to the subject. The exhibition is divided into four sections; history, labour, electrical systems and movement. There is also a fifth section that is devoted to the tramways of Trieste, Istria and Friuli. There is also a chance to take an old train to platforms that are no longer in use, leading to the outskirts of Trieste or to Bled, a lovely town near the Slovenian border. The timetable constantly changes so contact the museum for details.
