Brussels Tram Museum
The Brussels Urban Transport Museum (MTUB) was founded in 1982 by members of the Société des Transports Intercommunaux Bruxellois (STIB) and a few amateurs with a passion for public transport. The museum is remarkable in more ways than one. Firstly, there’s the building that houses it. The Woluwe depot was originally opened in 1897 for the trams that travelled along brand new Avenue de Tervuren. Two of its three halls have beautiful wooden roof structures: these halls house the museum. The third hall is still operated and used by STIB. The buildings were classified as a historical monument by the Brussels-Capital Region on November 29, 2001. They were completely renovated between 2006 and 2009. Next, there’s the collection, which is one of the most extensive in the world. Our old trams, buses, taxis, vehicles and miscellaneous objects take you on a trip to the past, from the “Belle-Epoque” through Expo 58, to the early days of the Metro.
Opening Times:
From October 2024 to March 2025, we will be open one weekend in a month from 1 p.m. to 6.30 p.m., with an additional weekend in December:
- 12 and 13 October
- 9 and 10 November
- 7, 8, 21 and 22 December
- 11 and 12 January 2025
- 8 and 9 February
- 8 and 9 March
On opening days, the historic trams will travel from the Museum to Montgomery Square, Dumon Square in Stockel and then return to the Museum. The terunenus terminus will remain inaccessible until the spring 2025 as a result of the renewal of tram tracks. On Sundays, our vintage buses will be added to ensure shuttles between the Museum and the European Quarter (Maelbeek Station) as well as between the Museum and Tervuren.
