The Pöstlingbergbahn-Museum in Linz, Austria, offers visitors an informative look into the history of the iconic Pöstlingberg mountain railway. Located at the lower station of the railway, this small museum provides an interesting overview of the technical aspects and development of this historic transportation system.
Visitors appreciate the well-preserved vintage tram cars and the detailed exhibits showcasing the railway's evolution since its inception in 1898. The museum effectively illustrates the importance of the Pöstlingbergbahn to Linz's public transportation and tourism.
However, some reviewers note that the museum is relatively compact and may not occupy visitors for an extended period. The information provided is primarily in German, which can be a drawback for international visitors. Despite its size, many find the admission price reasonable, especially when combined with a trip on the railway itself.
The museum's location at the base station makes it a convenient stop before or after riding the Pöstlingbergbahn up the mountain. While not a major attraction on its own, it serves as an educational complement to the railway experience, offering context and historical insight that enhances the overall visit to Pöstlingberg.
