                                The exhibition “Under the Spell of the Railway” shows how the railway gradually brought our world closer together and made travel accessible to everyone. On this guided tour, we discover groundbreaking technical developments, experience the social changes brought about by the railway – and immerse ourselves in the detailed world of model-making, which inspires young and old alike.
