Miniatur Wunderland, Model railroad museum in Hamburg-Mitte, Germany.
The exhibition space spans 7000 square meters featuring 15.7 kilometers of miniature train tracks with 1040 digitally controlled trains and 265,000 figurines.
Frederick Braun established Miniatur Wunderland in 2001 after visiting a model shop in Zurich, starting with three sections including Knuffingen and Central Germany.
The museum represents different regions through detailed miniature landscapes, including replicas of Hamburg's port, Bavaria's castles, and international destinations like Monaco.
The facility maintains extended hours on weekends, opening at 8:00 AM on Saturdays and 8:30 AM on Sundays, with closing times varying between 18:00 and 21:00.
Each section transitions between day and night every 15 minutes, with 389,000 LED lights illuminating buildings, streets, and vehicles throughout the miniature landscapes.
