Shanghai Telecom Museum

Telegraph history adds a technology-focused stop inside a historic building near the Bund.

Location
34 East Yan’an Road, Huangpu

A place worth knowing

The museum occupies the former Great Northern Telegraph Company building, completed in 1922, and follows the systems that connected Shanghai with wider networks. Its setting makes it a useful complement to a walk among the Bund’s commercial architecture. Check public visiting days and any registration requirements before making a dedicated trip. The historic building and the museum’s accessible exhibition areas should not be treated as identical spaces.
