The collection of the Wiener Tramwaymuseum was established
in 1966 by Mr. Helmut Portele and it was exhibited at the Ottakring tram
depot until 1986 before it moved to Erdberg. This exhibition featured
special shows which were very popular among tourists increasing their
interest in historic trams.
