About

The Straßenbahnmuseum Bremen, also known as “Das Depot,” offers a nostalgic journey through the city’s public transport history. Located in the Sebaldsbrück district, the museum is housed in a former tram depot and operated by the association Freunde der Bremer Straßenbahn e.V. Since its opening in 2003, it has showcased a rich collection of historic trams, buses, and technical equipment, including a horse-drawn tram from 1888 and electric models from the early 20th century. The exhibition is designed to be interactive, allowing visitors to explore fare systems, signal technology, and the evolution of tram driving. Many vehicles are still operational and used on special heritage routes through Bremen. The museum not only preserves the technical heritage of the city’s transit system but also invites visitors to experience the charm of vintage mobility. It is a must-visit for transport enthusiasts and families alike, offering a hands-on look at Bremen’s urban history.
