Hungarian Technical and Transportation Museum


The Magyar Műszaki és Közlekedési Múzeum, still often referred to with its former name, Közlekedési Múzeum, is a museum in Budapest, Hungary. It is one of Europe’s oldest transportation collections.
The museum has a unique collection of locomotives and railway cars on a 1:5 scale. This means that a locomotive of, for example, 10 m length is reproduced with all details in a 2 m length model. The models represent a wide range of railway technology. The museum shows also a locomotive and wagon in real size with a railway station of the 1900s.
In other parts of the museum are shown:
The history of city transportation shows the public traffic in Buda and Pest before the appearance of trams and omnibuses.
The museum also owns the collection of planes in Aeropark, an aviation museum dedicated to the history of Hungarian civil aviation, next to Budapest Ferenc Liszt International Airport.
