1st Austrian Christmas Museum with Christkindl train

Steyr, Oberösterreich, Österreich

Antique Christmas tree decorations 1830 - 1945 from the collection Elfriede Kreuzberger & Christkindl train

Incredible 14,000 pieces of Christmas ornaments – antique decorations made of glass, porcelain, metal, cardboard, or paper – were lovingly decorated by collector Elfriede Kreuzberger. The Kreuzberger collection, with 18,200 objects, is the largest private collection in the world (count as of 2005), displayed in the "former Citizens' Hospital" in the Steyrdorf district.

Steyrer Stubn on the ground floor: 200 dollhouses and dolls, tea dolls, and toy dolls from past years. 

A special attraction is the ride on the experience train. Securely strapped into seats, the journey through the Advent season begins – passing by showcase booths. Dolls on the ground floor showcase Christmas traditions in Austria, while the first floor features customs from many countries around the world. 
The highlight is the Angels' Workshop under the roof, where hundreds of little angels prepare for Christmas. 

Train capacity
2 trains of 5 people per ride
Travel time approx. 10 min.

In the museum shop, small gifts like little angels, books, and award-winning
chocolate specialties from the Bachhalm company await. To warm up, there is the Christkindl punch.

For individual visitors, no advance reservation is necessary or possible for the visit to the Christmas Museum as well as for the experience train; they can visit the Christmas Museum anytime during opening hours!
