Transportation Museum


The Verkehrshaus (Transportation) Museum is a treasure of Swiss transportation history located in Luzern. It's hard to believe that the Swiss have so much to say about this topic! We toured exhibits about tunnels, trains, trams, boats, planes, cars and even funiculars, gondolas and ski lifts! They have several examples of these things (even a full-size plane) so the building is very large...it's so large they have kick scooters available to get from one area to another. The museum has tons of interactive displays to capture your interest and also touts a planetarium and IMAX theatre (we saw The Alps). We really enjoyed finding our apartment on the Swiss Arena - the largest aerial photograph of Switzerland. See all of our Luzern pictures here.
