Underground Railway Museum

The first metro line was designed as a means of transporting passengers from the city center to City Park without the need to use Andrassy Street, where construction began in 1894 and was implemented by the German company Siemens & Halske AG, employing 2000 workers using the latest machinery until it opened on May 2 1896 (the year of the thousandth anniversary of the arrival of the Hungarians) by Emperor Franz Joseph; The surprising fact is that the construction process took only 21 months! It was also recognized as a World Heritage Site in 2002. When you are in the city, do not miss visiting the Underground Railroad Museum with your family to learn about the abandoned section of the tracks that includes the old subway cars.
