The Railway Department of the Office of the Governor-General of Taiwan (Chinese: 台灣總督府交通局鐵道部) is a National Historic Site in Taiwan. The site, near the Taipei North Gate, was in use for railway administration during the late Qing dynasty, but the current extant building is a Japanese colonial administrative building in Taipei dating from 1919, used until 1945 as the headquarters of the Taihoku Railway Bureau and the Railway Department of the Office of the Governor-General of Taiwan's Bureau of Transportation, and then from 1948 until 1990 as the headquarters of Taiwan Railways Administration. It was granted national monument status in 2007, and is a part of the National Taiwan Museum.^[1][2][3]

On January 9, 2014, the National Taiwan Museum began repair work on the buildings.^[4] In 2016, the project was initially completed and on July 7, 2020, it officially opened to the public.^[5]
