SÜDBAHN Museum
About This Museum
People come to the SÜDBAHN Museum not just as train buffs, but as curious souls drawn to the romance of the rails and a piece of Austria's industrial heart. You get to walk right up to these magnificent, hulking steam locomotives inside the old engine shed—it’s almost like they’ve just been parked for the night. The real magic is how it brings history alive; you can practically hear the hiss of steam and feel the anticipation of a journey on the old Southern Railway. It’s a surprisingly intimate and powerful experience that sticks with you.
Collection Highlights
Massive, beautifully restored steam engines you can see up close, exhibits on the challenging Semmering railway line, and all sorts of railway paraphernalia that tell the story of travel and transport.
Visitor Information
It's tucked away in Mürzzuschlag at Heizhausgasse 2, and with a near-perfect rating from hundreds of visitors, you know you're in for a good time. Definitely check their opening times before you go!
Architecture & Building
Housed authentically in the town's original, cavernous railway engine shed—a historic industrial building made of brick and iron that's as much a part of the exhibit as the trains inside.
