Schauplatz Eisenbahn - Sächsisches Eisenbahnmuseum Chemnitz-Hilbersdorf e. V.

Schauplatz Eisenbahn at the Sächsisches Eisenbahnmuseum Chemnitz-Hilbersdorf invites you to explore and experience the history of railroads 🚂. You'll find a large exhibition with historic locomotives ranging from steam engines to modern diesel and electric trains, plus an authentic marshalling yard.

Highlights include family-friendly programs like exciting rides on the SchauplatzExpress, trips on the field railway, and interactive guided tours. The Explorer Tour offers exclusive access to normally closed buildings and surprising stories – perfect for curious kids and families.

On German Unity Day, look forward to a variety of activities: locomotive presentations, model train shows, upcycling crafts, GDR board games, and rare vehicles from the Chemnitz Oldtimer Club. During school holidays, the museum offers creative workshops like a photography course with a professional set against a historic backdrop or the "Team Duel" with quizzes, skill challenges, and movement games for school classes and clubs.

The mix of hands-on activities, a special kid-led family tour, and family-friendly picnic areas makes the museum a fantastic destination for all ages. A diverse day full of railway excitement for the whole family awaits you 🎉.
