About Hejaz Railway Station and Museum

A stone station changes the skyline of minarets: the old Hejaz terminal recalls the pilgrimage journeys linked to Damascus. The complex now houses a museum about the railway and the history of Medina, in architecture tied to the Ottoman period.

Being listed on the tourism portal does not guarantee open rooms. Confirm opening hours and the permitted route; without confirmation, extend your time at Dar Al-Madinah and continue to the valley. The railway stop should not shape your whole day.
