Musée des transports en commun de Liège, Public transport museum in Liège, Belgium
The Musée des Transports en Commun is a transport museum in Liège housed in a converted tram depot that displays around 50 vehicles from different periods. The collection includes horse-drawn carriages, trams, trolleybuses, and buses that show how public transportation evolved over time.
The museum documents the development of public transport from the 18th century onward through original vehicles and archival materials. It traces how transportation methods shifted from horse-drawn carriages to modern motorized vehicles serving the city and region.
The museum tells the story of how public transport shaped daily life and connected communities across the region. Through its collection, you see how trams and buses became part of people's routines and how they changed the way cities grew.
It is best to visit between March and November when the museum operates regularly with full displays and exhibits open. Allow enough time to explore the vehicles and interactive sections, as there is much to discover throughout the building.
The museum includes exhibits about future tram projects and sustainability in urban mobility, offering a forward-looking perspective alongside historical displays. These sections reveal how cities are rethinking public transport for tomorrow.
