Schreurs Antieke Uurwerken: looking at clock and case

Schreurs Antieke Uurwerken in Breda combines a shop with a museum display. The same venue is also listed as the Klokkenmuseum: it is a single visitor address on the Catharinastraat.

More than a dial

The business’s own collection description mentions antique clocks, Atmos clocks, barometers and music boxes. So what is on offer goes beyond simply telling the time. When looking, pay attention to the case, the scale markings and the finish: these make the differences between the objects visible even without technical knowledge.

Explanations by appointment

For a planned guided tour you can get in touch in advance. That is worthwhile if you want to know how a particular timepiece is constructed or what points need attention in its maintenance. Repair, restoration and valuation are separate services of the business; do not assume you can walk freely round the workshop.

The right daily schedule

The museum can be seen free of charge during shop hours. On Tuesday an appointment is needed, while Thursday is a shorter opening day than Wednesday and Friday. Saturday also has its own opening time. Use Schreurs’ contact details for your planning and discuss any accessibility questions directly.

Before you go

Check the daily schedule; this venue is also known as the Klokkenmuseum.
