With over eight miles of track, Hamburg,
Germany’s Miniatur Wunderland is the
world’s largest model railroad. Due to its
magnitude and level of detail, it took 230 staff
members more than 580,000 hours to complete.
3. More than 930 model trains make their way
through the track’s construction areas. Each section
of the track is themed, creating lifelike versions of
Hamburg, Switzerland, and the Alps. There is
even a small American section, which features a
tiny Las Vegas comprised of 30,000 lights.
Frederik Braun, inspired by a lifelong passion for
both model trains and incredible collections,
conceptualized the Miniatur Wunderland. In 2000,
with the help of his twin brother Gerrit, he set out
to build the world’s largest model railway.
