Spårvägsmuseet ("Tramway Museum") is (since 1990) located on Tegelviksgatan 22 in Södermalm, Stockholm. In the museum there is also a café, a library, an archive and another museum called Leksaksmuseet ("Toy Museum"). It is owned by Storstockholms Lokaltrafik. It shows vehicles and the development of the public transport at Stockholm from the 19th century until present.
History
The tramway chief Ernst Hjortzberg started collecting things in about 1900, when there were horse trams. There was an internal museum at the headquarters of the company at Tegnérgatan. (You can read about this in a newspaper article from 1922.)
In 1944 the museum was publicly opened on Tulegatan close to the old tram depot. In 1964 the museum was moved to Odenplan, but the museum was small and it was impossible to show many vehicles.
