Next to the Kalte Rinne viaduct, in Breitenstein, the former line-keeper's house number 167 became in 2013 the world's only museum dedicated to Carl Ritter von Ghega, the engineer who built the line. About 150 objects tell his life and that of those who worked with him. You come across it on the Bahnwanderweg. Simpler is the information centre at Semmering station, with plans and models, free. On the other side of the pass, the Südbahnmuseum in Mürzzuschlag has two halls of locomotives.
