Skjoldenæsholm Tram Museum (Danish: Sporvejsmuseet Skjoldenæsholm), also referred to as the Danish Tramway Museum, is an open-air museum dedicated to vintage trams and buses. It is located 65 km (40 mi) south-west of Copenhagen, Denmark, between Ringsted and Roskilde. The museum opened on land which belongs to Skjoldenæsholm Castle on 26 May 1978. It was established and is run entirely by unpaid volunteers in collaboration with the Danish Tram Historical Society. The museum is founded on some of the remains of Sjællandske Midtbane, a railway that was closed in 1936 and went from Næstved to Frederikssund via Ringsted and Hvalsø. The museum's goal is to preserve and restore trams (and now also buses and trolleybuses) in running condition: Right from the inaugural meeting, the idea of preserving and restoring the fast-disappearing trams was conceived, so that future generations might be able to see and experience the old trams.
