The Naumburg (Saale) tramway (German: Straßenbahn Naumburg (Saale)) is a tramline forming part of the public transport system in Naumburg (Saale), a city in the federal stateofSaxony-Anhalt, Germany. At only 2.9 km (1.8 mi) long, it is the smallest urban tramway in Germany,[1] and one of the smallest in Europe.

History[edit]

Service with steam trams began on 15 September 1892. The network was electrified in 1907.[1]

Tram operation was suspended on 19 August 1991 due to financial difficulties and declining numbers of passengers.[1] In 1994, 300 m (980 ft) of track was restored for weekend services, initially as a horsedrawn tram, with electric service resuming in 1995. Operation of the tramway was assumed by Naumburger Straßenbahn GmbH.[1]

Daily services on parts of the former loop line began on 31 March 2007.[1]

An extension of the line from Vogelwiese to Salztor was opened in 2017.[1]

Lines[edit]

The network formerly consisted of a loop line around Naumburg Cathedral. Today, the 2.9 km (1.8 mi) line, numbered Linie 4, runs on parts of the former loop arrangement from Naumburg Hauptbahnhof to Salztor.[1]
