Exhibition space at the Southern River Terminal
About museum
Museum of Moscow Transport has opened a new exhibition space in the building of the Southern River Terminal. The first project, "Moscow River: Passenger", will tell visitors about the history and development of urban river transport. The project's architecture references the image of the river, echoing its smooth flow from one historical period to another.

\r\nAt the "Moscow River: Passenger" exhibition, the Museum of Moscow Transport will present, in chronological order, key events in the history of the river’s development — from the construction of the Vodootvodny Canal in the 18th century to the launch of electric watercraft in the 21st century. Visitors will be able to see scale models of vessels, unique photographs, blueprints and archival footage from more than 10 state and private collections, as well as a collection of transport tickets and archival printed publications on the subject of river transport.
