Support the museum tramway

Support us

The Amsterdam Museum Tramway preserves historic electric trams and keeps them moving for visitors, volunteers and future generations. Your support helps us restore vehicles, maintain technical heritage and keep the museum tramway alive.

Restore

Help bring historic trams back into service through specialist restoration work.

Maintain

Support the ongoing care of vehicles, tracks, workshops and technical equipment.

Preserve

Keep Amsterdam’s tram history accessible as living heritage rather than static memory.

Current projects

Below you will find projects where donations make a direct difference. More projects can be added here as restoration work continues.
