Montan- und Werksbahnmuseum Graz, Underground railway museum in Graz, Austria
The Montan and Industrial Railway Museum displays railway vehicles in historic tunnels beneath Schlossberg. The locomotives and wagons on display were originally built for mining and industrial operations and remain in their original setting today.
The tunnels were created through extraction of raw materials and later used for railway transportation. During World War II, the underground passages served as shelter for thousands of residents.
The museum documents the technical evolution of underground rail transportation through its collection of diesel, benzene, electric, battery, and compressed air locomotives.
Access is limited to small groups of professionals and requires advance booking. Low passages and tight spaces mean comfort and flexibility in planning your visit are important.
The collection holds one of Europe's largest assemblies of narrow-gauge vehicles spread across several kilometers of tunnel tracks. These vehicles demonstrate different power systems developed over more than a century.
