Kalamata Railway Park

The Railway Park is an open-air museum of historic locomotives and carriages in the city.

The Kalamata Railway Park is an open-air museum in the city centre, with historic steam locomotives, carriages and railway equipment set among gardens and a former station area. The collection includes locomotives from the narrow-gauge railway that once crossed the Peloponnese, and some of the rolling stock has been restored. It is a pleasant place for a walk, especially with children, who enjoy climbing up to see the engines. Information panels describe the history of the Peloponnese railway, and the park also hosts events and exhibitions. In the evening, café-bars on the edges attract local visitors. The park is close to the railway station and the old town, and a visit takes between thirty and sixty minutes. Entry conditions may change, so check locally. The area is flat and accessible, and the park is open to the public for walking. It is a good option for a rainy-day alternative in other parts of the city.
