    This place will show you the history of cars, bicycles, races, motorbikes, trains, aviation etc. The best thing not only for children is the huge model railway room.

    March 2022 The museum was directly in front of the hotel I was staying in, and, as I work for an automobile museum in Stuttgart, I had to visit the Verkehrsmuseum (transport museum) in Dresden. The museum is small but full of wonderful treats (klein aber großartig). Housed in a building built in the 16th century to house the horses and coaches of King Johann of Saxony, the building is still dedicated today to mobility, The museum consists of six destinctive sections: - road transport - rail transport - aviation - sea/water transport - model railroad - road safety for children with other rooms for activities and other exhibitions. Ticket price €11 is fair, especially if you have time to view everything there. I spent three hours in the museum. The audio guide is an app which you can download on your smartphone. The problem is, if you don't have a headset/earpiece with you, you have to hold your phone to your ear if you don't want to bother other visitors. It would be a good idea if the museum offered such headsets. The good thing about the app is that you can listen back to the tracks days later if you note the code numbers of the exhibits. Your visit starts in the road transport section - and that's where I spent most of my time. The invention of the wheel, the penny.farthing, the bicycle, the automobile. In this museum you can learn how to get on a penny-farthing! The museum is a bit cramped but full of interesting exhibits. For example, a video is projected onto a Horch engine illustrating the movement of the cylinders. When you press on the Horch accelerator, you accelerate the movement of the cylinders. I also loved the writing on the walls. The world history corresponding to the vehicles on exhibit. Great activities for children. I especially liked the "Flight physics lab" and the driving school where small children can learn the rules of the road. I could have spend the whole day in the Museum - or even longer.

    Beautiful layout of different locomotives and history of the land without being in your face. The land transport really gives a basic chronological insight to transportation's transformation. Was a little disappointed about aviation and sea transport lacking in some translations.

    Unfriendly staff (guide). We were there on June 8th, 2024. The tickets for the tour were only given to selected people. Unfortunately, we were not there. Our children were looking forward to the tour and we could not take part because we did not have these tickets.

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.
