ADVENT 2023

Another Advent is front of us and we look forward to sharing it with our visitors. This year too, we appropriately decorated our Museum and finished the model with small details, as if it would be even more interesting, although, according to the reviews of our visitors on Google, it has been interesting and special in every way. Namely, the Mini Train Museum – Backo mini express was rated 4.8 out of 5 by more than 900 visitors, which is currently the highest rating for a museum in Croatia. With the activities we are planning after Advent (expansion of the model to one more room, i.e. an additional 20 m²), we hope to maintain our leading position.

We have changed our year-round working hours (Friday/Saturday from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m.) during Advent (from 02.12.2023 to 06.01.2024) to new working hours:

MON-SAT (closed on Sundays) from 12-8 p.m

in order to enable as many enthusiasts of small railways and scale models as possible to see and enjoy the result of the long-term work of our hardworking employees, headed by Mr. Antun Urbić, the originator and patron of this unique project.

The novelty of this year’s Advent in our Museum will be free guided tours that will be held on Mondays and Wednesdays at 1:00 PM and 2:00 PM. The idea is to give visitors a closer look at the scenes on the model, to answer possible questions related to some technical performances and to provide as much information as possible from details that are difficult to see due to their size (the scale in which the model was made is the usual model HO standard, i.e. 1:87 ). In addition, we have updated our layout guide, which are available on this page as well as by scanning the QR code on our flyer, which can be obtained at the Museum’s ticket office.

We believe that everyone who visits us will leave, as before, full of emotions, since this is a unique exhibition that will not leave anyone indifferent, especially not our the youngest visitors.

We are looking forward to your visit!
