Augsburg Railway Park, Railway museum at former train depot, Augsburg, Germany.

Augsburg Railway Park occupies part of the former Augsburg locomotive shed south of the main station. Its centrepiece is the Rundhaus Europa, a listed roundhouse with a working turntable, alongside three historic steam locomotive halls and a smithy. A long open shed with four bays displays locomotives including DB railcar, CC 6503, 120 003-9 and E18 08.

The Royal Bavarian State Railways built the depot around 1906 south of Augsburg Hauptbahnhof, with two roundhouses, turntables, workshops and crew accommodation. The site survived the bombing of 25–26 February 1944 that destroyed the main station. Deutsche Bundesbahn used it until about 1990; since 1996 the roundhouses have been protected monuments, and in 2008 Deutsche Bahn transferred the roundhouse, steam hall and overnight building to the Bahnpark Augsburg gGmbH for one euro.

The site displays locomotives from different European countries, telling the story of how railway technology developed across borders. Visitors can see how trains brought different regions into connection through a shared transportation system.

From May to October the park is open daily except Mondays, with the full programme on Sundays and public holidays; visits were restricted from 2017 to early 2020. The grounds lie south of Augsburg Hauptbahnhof, and the Europa Roundhouse turntable was fully renovated in 2015. The Mini-Bahn garden railway, run since 2016 by the Bahnpark support association, circles the former crew accommodation building.

The Mini-Bahn Augsburg, run since 2016 by the Bahnpark support association, uses 7¼-inch and partly 5-inch gauge track in three-rail operation. Its roughly 300-metre route circles the former crew accommodation building and runs alongside the Europa Roundhouse. Nine carriages in two trains carry up to 30 passengers, hauled by models of the AEG E1 electric loco, a Gmeinder diesel and, since 2013, a live-steam field railway engine.
