EXPERIENCE THE CITÉ DU TRAIN OLYMPIAD!
To mark European Museum Night on May 23, Europe's biggest railway museum invites young and old to share a day of laughter, challenges and complicity with its Railway Olympics. An original experience to be enjoyed together, with family or friends, from 10 a.m., and to be extended during an exceptional nocturne until 10 p.m.
Discover the history of the railroads in a whole new way!
Throughout the day, everyone can try their luck at fun challenges inspired by the world of trains. The aim? Have fun, challenge yourself... and why not get the best score!
For this 22ᵉ edition, the museum is facilitating access for all with an exceptional half-price rate: €8 (instead of €16) per adult, €6 (instead of €12) per child and still free for children under 4. A great opportunity to come in numbers and enjoy this festive day to the full.
In partnership with the FVA association, an exhibition of vintage vehicles will round off a day rich in discoveries. And from 6 p.m. onwards, it's time to relax: refreshments and tarts flambées will be available to prolong the evening in a convivial atmosphere.
ON THE PROGRAM :
READY TO TAKE ON ANY CHALLENGE?
To win, you'll need the best score!
- The black gold rush
Shovel as much coal as possible in record time to fuel the locomotive.
- The train is about to roll! Watch out for the departure
100-meter sprint with suitcases on the platform... you don't want to miss the train!
- Can you push 32 tons?
Use your strength to move a locomotive. Yes, a real one. Yes, 32 tons.
- Top speed, here comes a train!
Be faster than lightning to trigger the crossing.
A FESTIVE ATMOSPHERE AND ENTERTAINMENT FOR ALL!
In the style of an old-fashioned fair, the youngest and the very youngest can discover wooden train-themed activities.
Visitors can also explore the Panorama Ferroviaire on board the Mini-Express d'Alsace*, seated in wagons towed by a miniature locomotive on rails! And try their hand at railway driving with a "baptême du rail "* on board a railcar.
*Weather permitting
