The Swiss Museum of Transport (Verkehrshaus) is the most popular museum in Switzerland. It tells the story of the development of transport and mobility by road, rail and water as well as in the air and outer space - and how it affects everyday life. More than 3,000 objects like planes, steam engines and cars are on display on more than 20,000sqm. In the Swissarena you can walk around on an aerial photograph of Switzerland with a scale of 1:20,000 - or be a TV presenter for a couple of minutes in the Media World and take home a recording of your performance. This museum is very much hands-on, not just things to look at. And in every section there are special activities for children - a good choice for the family not just on a rainy day! To get there from Zurich, take a train to Luzern (55 minutes) and then bus N°6, 8 or 24 in direction Verkehrshaus (10 minutes).
