Public Transport Museum in Prague

The Public Transport Museum in Střešovice houses around forty historical vehicles including trams, buses, and trolleybuses displayed across a large indoor exhibition space. The collection spans different decades and demonstrates how urban transportation systems evolved.

The building began as a tram depot in 1909 and functioned for many years as an active maintenance facility for vehicles. It received official recognition as a technical monument in 1991.

The museum displays how Prague residents traveled by tram, bus, and trolleybus across different eras. Old tickets, route maps, and photographs on view tell the story of how transportation shaped daily life in the city.

The museum is best visited on weekends when both the exhibition and historical tram rides operate. Summer months offer additional visiting days, and the site is located on Patočkova street.

Visitors can ride in actual historical trams on weekends, with a heritage line 41 service connecting the museum grounds to central Prague. These rides offer a genuine experience of how people traveled decades ago.
