All over Europe people have built carriages in various shapes and for various needs. In the European museums you can find this rich cultural heritage as a part of a transport collection, as a Royal relic or as an inventory of a castle or coach house.

In this portal we offer you information about types and names, we show examples from different museums and we present a list of literature. All of these items are growing in time. New members of the portal present their carriages, sleighs, litters and sedan chairs. Every visitor can suggest additions to the list of types, the glossary and bibliography. The editors welcome your involvement.
