Since 1885, Melbourne has been one of the world’s great tramway cities. We celebrate the history of trams and the contribution they have made to the place where we live, in the most authentic tramway museum in Australia: the heritage-listed Hawthorn Tram Depot. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic the museum is currently closed. We hope to welcome you back to the museum soon, but until then check out our website for loads of tram-related content that describes Melbourne's tramway history and our heritage tram collection.
