Friends of ViaStoria 

Where your help goes

As a Friend of ViaStoria you support the following activities:

  • transport history research projects
  • projects for the preservation and
  • worthwhile use of historical transport routes
  • production of the magazine "Wege und Geschichte" and other publications

The priority is to provide initial funding for projects, which means your annual subscription has a far-reaching impact.
