FANATIC: a football collection in a hotel

Voetbalmuseum FANATIC is housed in the HUP sports hotel in Mierlo. Shirts, boots and other memorabilia make up the collection, with a shirt wall and a football quiz offering different ways to look around.

Plan your visit ↗

A shirt with a story

A shirt gains meaning through the player, match or other context. Read what provenance is given for the item on display rather than just following the familiar colours.

More than clothing

The collection includes a wide variety of personal and sporting objects. See how they are presented side by side and which explanations clarify their place in the story of football.

Through the hotel

The quiz is available at reception and can support your route through the hotel. Follow the directions for guests and visitors; not every part of the hotel belongs to what the museum offers.

Before you go

Check HUP’s current visiting conditions. The hotel setting has its own activities and uses; ask in advance about group visits, accessibility or a specific part of the collection.
