Museum for children Frankfurt am Main - Transport Museum Frankfurt
the appeal of the exhibition of historical vehicles in Frankfurt lies less in its sheer size and number of exhibits than in its atmospheric, carefully prepared presentation and its attractive location on the skirts of the Schwanheim woods.

Around thirty restored exhibits originating from Frankfurt, including the world's oldest preserved tram (dating back to 1884), an impressive steam engine (1900), a horse-wagon (1872) and additional exhibits from various decades, provide a chronicle of over 125 years of Frankfurt's local transport history.

All the vehicles were collected before the Second World War and maintained so well as to reflect their original condition. Brightly polished metal, creaky wood benches and starched uniforms spanning the past 80 years impart an extraordinary ambience.
