Swiss Museum of Transport
Switzerland is well-known for having one of the world's most efficient transportation networks. As a result, having the best transport museum is nearly expected. It's the most visited museum in the country for good reason. It recounts the history of transportation, from the earliest plane and railway models through futuristic transportation concepts. The museum also includes Media World, which has 3D movies, cafés, and restaurants. The Swiss Chocolate Adventure, an interactive experience that follows the process of how a cocoa bean is turned into one of the country's greatest goods - chocolate – is a fan favorite.
The museum dates back to 1897 when the first attempts were made to create a museum of railway equipment. Following a nationwide exposition in 1914, Swiss Federal Railways established the Swiss Railway Museum in Zurich in 1918. The concept subsequently expanded to include all modes of transportation, and the Swiss Museum of Transport organization was founded in 1942. Swiss Federal Railways teamed together with Swiss Postal Telegraph and Telephone, as well as other private transportation, commerce, industry, and tourism groups.
