Railway Museum
The Railway Museum was founded in 1933. It was finished on the 26th of October, 1932 and first opened on the 15th of January, 1933. It was originally built to celebrate the international railway conference which was held in that same year in Cairo. This allowed the conference members to experience the first railway museum in the Middle East.
The museum contains more than seven hundred pieces of models in addition to a collection of statistical documents and maps that demonstrate the development of transportation through the last decades. Therefore, the Railway Museum is considered the most important institute to collect information about transportation in the Middle East.
