This cultural institution, given the name of a National Museum in 1996, is on the banks of the Danube, outside Ruse and opposite the Romanian town of Giurgiu. It is housed in Ruse's first railway station (near the Youth Park), built in 1866 to serve the railway connection to Varna and Black Sea, which it did until 1901. Since 2007 you may admire more than 10 steam engines (the oldest from 1865), hand-cars and, most impressive, the personal carriages of King Ferdinand of Bulgaria and King Boris III of Bulgaria. You can also see the blue carriage of the Ottoman Sultan Abdul Azis, of 1866.
