Time travel with historic trams: a weekend in Darmstadt!

Marburger Straße 16, 64289 Darmstadt, Deutschland - The tram museum in Darmstadt, which is known for its impressive collection of historical trams, opens its gates for the first exhibition visitors on May 29, 2025. As part of the so -called railway world days, interested parties can experience the development of tram technology up close from May 29 to June 1, 2025.

At the opening times from 10.30 a.m. to 5.30 p.m., visitors are given the opportunity to visit original vehicles from seven decades, which range from the pre-war car to the 1980s. Many of the vehicles have been restored and are reminiscent of past times. Some may be aware of the older Darmstädters from their own memory. The location of the exhibition is Marburger Straße 16, Darmstadt, and is easy to reach with both tram line 4 (Messplatz stop) and line 8 (Nordbahnhof).

special features of the exhibition

The Darmstadt tram museum, also known as a tram deposit for historical vehicles, moved its work to the new address in May 2024. The museum is part of the route of industrial culture in the Rhine-Main area and offers a multifaceted exhibition that shows numerous vehicles that have been used in Darmstadt over the years. The oldest exhibit is an electric tram trolley Str 2 from 1913, which is of particular importance in the exhibition.

Historical trams also run regularly on the Darmstadt rail network, which makes the reference to the modern use of the tram tangible even for younger generations. Visitors can also use small strengthening options on site that invite you to relax.

additional arrival information

A historic railway bus runs every hour between the exhibition and the railway museum at the Kranichsteiner train station, which enables a comfortable journey. These events do not take place regularly, since the exhibition is open four times a year due to building law reasons. The upcoming exhibition promises an experience for young and old that offers a deep insight into the history of public transport in Darmstadt.
