Dresden Transport Museum

Visit the Johanneum at the Neumarkt in Dresden to go on an adventure through the history of mobility. On an area of 5,000 square metres, the collection offers an impressive variety of exhibits including unique originals, imposing models and fascinating rare vehicles. Discover interesting and exciting stories about the vehicles – and the people – that move us, and learn about technology at the same time. Acquire knowledge about interesting facts on interactive and hands-on stations: Ride a penny-farthing, board a steam-locomotive or design your own boat and participate in a digital regatta. The Transport Museum is dedicated to a wide range of topics in the field of mobility. It houses exhibitions that cover all four modes of transport under one roof: road traffic, rail transport, aviation and navigation. The Dresden Transport Museum (founded in 1952) has its origins in the Royal Saxon State Railway museum founded in 1877 as one of the oldest technical collections in Germany. The Dresden Transport Museum is housed in the former royal stable building used by Saxon kings for their coaches and horses over 400 years ago. The ticket is valid for all open exhibitions (e.g. road, rail and air traffic, navigation, temporary exhibition, model railway, traffic garden). Using the free Wi-Fi you can download the free audioguide app on your own mobile device (available in German, English, Czech, Russian and German Sign language).
