Kaeserberg, a unique miniature railway museum, has placed its faith in modern media by creating a brand new exhibition.
Kaeserberg is transformed and reopens on May 28, 2025
The new exhibition uses modern technology to introduce visitors to model railroading and train network management. It features cinemas, projections, interactive screens, educational models, driving simulators, and enhanced scenery. Outside, visitors are welcomed by fun installations and a life-size locomotive. The refurbished reception area has been redesigned for greater user-friendliness. The highlight remains the impressive model train layout representing imaginary Switzerland. It has over 2 km of track, 87 trains, and 6,500 figures. Now, visitors can track it in real time via interactive screens.
