Based in Naples' restored Seaboard Air Line Railway passenger station, the Naples Depot Museum takes visitors on a journey back in time to the railroading boom days of the Roaring Twenties and explores the use of technology and transportation by Southwest Floridians to conquer the “impenetrable” frontier.
Conveniently located in downtown Naples and listed on the National Register of Historic Places, the Naples Depot Museum features a variety of interactive exhibits and displays, including restored rail cars, antique swamp buggies, Seminole dugout canoes, and an ancient mule wagon. Informative plaques explain the history of trade in Naples and its transformation into a glittering Gulf Coast resort. The Naples Depot Museum is also home to the privately operated Naples Train Museum, which features an interactive model and offers a train ride to children.
Address: Naples Depot Museum, 1051 5th Ave S, Naples, Fl. 34102, 239-262-6525
