Tram tourist line 36 – Warszawski Transport Publiczny

Tram tourist line 36

We encourage you to take the tram 36, which will take you to many attractive places in Warsaw. Its tourist version includes, among others, the iconic 13N trams called “sausages”, which have finished operating on regular lines in 2012.

The route of the line 36 – served by historic trams 13N “sausages” and 105N “aquariums” – runs through the very center to the green Żoliborz district. The vicinity of Plac Narutowicza (Narutowicza Square) is a part of Ochota, in which pre-war buildings have survived – with the neo-Romanesque church of the Immaculate Conception of the Blessed Virgin Mary in the parish of St. Jakub the Apostle, the monumental building of the Student House “Dormitory” or residential buildings along Filtrowa Street. The tram will pass the Filter Station and the building of the Supreme Audit Office (in the 1930s the seat of the voivodeship office), the Warsaw University of Technology, Plac Zbawiciela (Zbawiciela Square), and will pass through MDM and Plac Bankowy (Bankowy Square). In Żoliborz, the route leads through the green (literally, because there is a grassy track) Adama Mickiewicza Street and further, behind the Plac Wilsona (T.W. Wilson Square), Juliusza Słowackiego Street to the Metro Marymont loop, from where you can go for a walk to the Kaskada Park.

Historical note

For half a century, from 1961 to 2011, line 36 trams served Żoliborz. They set out on the tracks at the end of 1961, when a new tram line to Marymont was opened, running from Plac Wilsona (T.W. Wilson Square, former Komuny Paryskiej Square) along Mickiewicza Street to the intersection with Potocka Street. A new end of Marymont-Potok was also built there. Initially, 36 connected Marymont with Śródmieście. With time, the line was extended to the south so that it also served Czerniaków and Sadyba. In 1973, after the tram line to Wilanów was closed, the line 36 started to reach the Wyścigi terminus. The closure of the viaduct at the Gdańska Railway Station in 2008 had a great impact on the routes of tram lines connecting Żoliborz with Śródmieście along Marszałkowska and Gen. Andersa Streets. Line 36 was directed along Aleja Jana Pawła II to the Metro Młociny terminus. In 2010, the line was suspended due to track works carried out on Marszałkowska and Puławska streets, and a year later it was closed down. Since 2019, the number 36 has been associated with historic tourist line carriages.
