Modellbahnbörse Chemnitz

The Chemnitz Model Railway Fair is one of the most established and diverse specialty exhibitions for model railway enthusiasts in southern Germany. It serves as a key meeting point for collectors, hobbyists, and traders alike. Twice a year, the Stadthalle Chemnitz transforms into a vibrant hub for everything that makes model building fans’ hearts beat faster. The event is organized by Henning Herzog, a well-known expert in the scene, whose passion and expertise ensure that each edition of the fair captivates both newcomers and seasoned collectors.

What sets the Chemnitz Model Railway Fair apart is its consistent focus on quality, variety, and community. It’s not just about buying and selling new or pre-owned items – it’s about the lively exchange among like-minded enthusiasts. Exhibitors from across the model railway sector – including renowned manufacturers, specialized dealers, and private collectors – showcase an impressive range of models in all gauges, finely detailed scenery materials, classic tinplate trains, and lovingly crafted model vehicles. Collectors of surprise egg figures (Ü-Ei) will also find plenty to discover – these have become a firmly established part of the fair, reflecting the diversity of collectible items on offer.

More than just a marketplace, the event provides a dynamic space for meetings, trading, expert discussions, and fresh inspiration. Visitors can look forward to high-quality exhibits, hands-on tips from professionals, and the occasional special offer or rare find. The fair appeals to a wide audience – from families with children and dedicated hobbyists to professional collectors and museum representatives – creating an intergenerational experience with lasting emotional value.

As one of the largest and best-attended events of its kind in Saxony, the Chemnitz Model Railway Fair is part of a regional network of notable trade shows. The choice of venue reflects the fair’s high standards in terms of accessibility and infrastructure: centrally located in the heart of Chemnitz, the Stadthalle is easy to reach by public transport, car, or on foot, and offers modern amenities in an architecturally appealing setting.

Whether you're searching for a specific model, reliving childhood memories, or simply immersing yourself in the captivating world of miniatures – the Chemnitz Model Railway Fair is a must-visit for anyone who wants to experience the magic of model building up close.
