All you need to know about the mining and narrow-gauge railway museum and operating days with further details on the Muttenthalbahn can be found on this page.
The working group Muttenthalbahn has been based below Schloss Steinhausen directly by the river Ruhr in Witten-Bommern since 1989.
The used premises belong to the now defunct Zeche[colliery] Theresia which closed down as far back as 1892. This mine had played a role in the early days of the mining industry south of the Ruhr. Our working group had redeveloped the listed colliery buildings which now serve as a good homestead for the museum.
We wish you an enjoyable perusal of our page and are looking forward to welcome you in the museum!
Our latest report:
- Happy New Year & Ride into the winter woods
We wish you a Happy New Year 2025 and hope you had a wonderful holiday season.
Coming Sunday, January 5th, 2025, we’ll be offering rides into the winter forest (which might even be truly snow-covered) while enjoying mulled punch and hot cocoa. Since Zeche Nachtigall will also be open, we’re happy to take you there from the parking lot on Nachtigallstraße, with a short stopover at our station, of course.
All the best & see you then,
Your Muttenthalbahn Team
