The Museum is a place dedicated to the city where you can take an exciting journey through the history of ATB and Bergamo; it is aimed in particular at primary and secondary school students (first and second grade) as a tool for educating about sustainable mobility. The Museum's layout creates an educational-training path within which the spectator discovers the history of ATB and local public transport, also through the use of the latest video-interactive multimedia technologies.
The Museum's layout includes panels describing the main stages in the history of public transport, display cases containing relics and work tools from the past and two "historic" funicular carriages, restored and set up.
The tour ends with a visit to the hall of model railways and models managed by the Gruppo Fermodellistico Orobico: a unique event for all fans of modelling and railway culture. In particular, there is a hall in which the Associazione dei Federmodellisti has reproduced the two historic railways of the Valle Seriana and Valle Brembana; the two lines, in perfect working order, allow a historical excursus from Bergamo Station towards the two Bergamo valleys. The visit to the Museum will be possible at the following times: from 09:30 to 12:30 and from 14:30 to 18:30.
Organised by the ATB company in collaboration with GFO Bergamo – Gruppo Federmodellistico Orobico.
