The Museo della Metropolitana di Budapest (Földalatti Vasúti Múzeum) is a fascinating stop for those who wish to discover the history of the first underground railway line in continental Europe, inaugurated in 1896. Located in the historic Deák Ferenc tér station, the museum tells over a century of evolution of urban transport in the Hungarian capital.

The permanent exhibition includes original carriages, vintage photographs, documents, models, and technical instruments, illustrating the construction and development of the Millennium metro, declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Visitors can admire up close the restored old trains and discover curiosities about the engineering techniques used at the end of the 19th century.

The museum is ideal for both transport history enthusiasts and families, thanks to informative panels and videos that make the visit interactive and engaging.

The central location, in the heart of Budapest, allows for easy combination of the museum visit with a tour of the surrounding neighborhood and the city's main attractions.
