’t Loosje drives through 85 years of logistics

In Opmeer, more than sixty historic lorries tell the family and company story of the logistics provider Simon Loos, on selected ticket days.

Plan your visit ↗

Cabs through the generations

Compare an early lorry with a later tractor unit in terms of visibility, controls and comfort. Ask which restorations were needed to preserve the bodywork and engine.

Makes with their own solutions

Scania torpedo, Kromhout, Büssing and Bedford show different designs. Choose one technical problem and compare how two makes solved it.

No fixed Wednesday or Saturday

The museum opens twice a month on published dates. Booking online is compulsory and there are no tickets at the door; a general weekday is not enough to plan on.

Before you go

Only on published Wednesday and Saturday dates 10.00–15.00 with a ticket booked in advance; groups need a separate appointment.
