The inaugural trip of Asunción's first electric tram took place on 7 July 1913. Previously, since 3 May 1872, a steam tram line operated between the Plaza Uruguaya railway station to the port. The tram network reached its peak in the 1930s with seven lines in the central area and suburban lines to Port Saxony and San Lorenzo. The Paraguayan capital's trams were abolished in 1997.
