Parkeisenbahn Cottbus, Miniature railway in Cottbus, Germany
The Parkeisenbahn Cottbus operates on a 3.2-kilometer track through parks and gardens, connecting multiple stations including the zoo and Branitz Palace.
This miniature railway, established in 1954, stands as an architectural heritage monument representing the tradition of recreational rail transport in eastern Germany.
The railway serves as an educational facility where children from age 9 can learn about train operations through hands-on experience as conductors and station masters.
The railway operates from March to November, with tickets costing 6 euros for adults and 4 euros for children, including stops at major attractions.
The railway system is upgrading its fleet with converted Swiss mountain railway cars, modifying them from 800mm to 600mm gauge for weather protection.
