A must see in Hamburg
Even if model villages/worlds are not your thing this is well worth the visit.
The Miniatur Wunderland is centrally located in the Speicherstadt (the historic ware house district) of Hamburg. It can be reached conveniently by bike, metro, bus and car.
How did it all start back then? Who are the people behind this crazy idea to build the biggest model railway in the world? How can the Wunderland be "measured" in figures? And which section is actually to be built next?
History of Wunderland
It took only five months from the initial idea in July 2000 until the construction of the first section started. Just eight months later, in August of 2001, the Miniatur Wunderland opened with its first three theme worlds. Here you can read how an idea, which at first appeared impossible to realize, turned into a major success.
Built over 4 floors and a whole team of people making and managing the models and movements.
From trains to ships and an amazing airport.
