Minden Museum Railway

The Museums-Eisenbahn Minden operates preserved steam locomotives, diesel engines, and historic carriages on the tracks of the Minden district railways.

Founded in 1977 from local railway groups, the museum started with diesel locomotives before expanding its collection to include various steam engines.

The museum maintains quarterly newsletters and organizes seasonal events, including December railway rides that connect visitors with German winter traditions.

The museum conducts regular weekend operations from Minden-Oberstadt station, offering rides on restored trains that date back more than 100 years.

Members maintain three dozen railway vehicles in two dedicated halls, where youth groups participate in restoration projects of historical wagons.
