Kelenföld railway station will be looking better than ever
Change language:
According to the plans of the Museum of Transport, the main attraction of the new museum exhibition space, which will be created with the complete renovation and expansion of the station building, will be a plotting board of hundreds of square metres, which will complement the railway exhibition.
Szeretlekmagyarorszag.hu reports that the Transport Museum got the opportunity to save the crumbling building. The aim is not only to make the building more beautiful but also to give back its function. Dávid Vitézy, a city mobility expert, was the first to report on the news on his Facebook page.
“Last night, a regulation was issued by the government that classified the renovation of the Kelenföld station building as a priority investment following the plans prepared by the Transport Museum and arranged for securing the building permits and the announcement of a public procurement contract,” writes Vitézy. He then notes in his post that the result of the complete refurbishment of the station building will be a new museum exhibition space.
The main attraction of this newly renovated space will be a terrain table added to the railway exhibition.
Visiting the facility is sure to become a popular program for train lovers, families, and foreign tourists as well. In addition to its aesthetic value, the renovation saves the building from demolition as well as creates a high-quality exhibition. The floor area of the terrain table is hundreds of square metres large. In addition, seasonal exhibitions and interactive pedagogical sessions will also be available.
This will be a spectacular addition to Kelenfold Station and the surrounding areas of the station, that will attract visitors and tourist to Kelenfold, expanding its importance beyond being a the major transportation point.
The Museum of Transport attraction, the historic significance attached to this Museum, will be another “bonus” that will attract Citizens of Hungary and Tourist to the joys and wonders of our Nations Capital City – Budapest, Hungary.
