Museum Spijkerman: motorcycles, vehicles and local finds

A private collection in Dalfsen grew from motorcycles and motocross to include military vehicles, mopeds, tractors and local objects.

Plan your visit ↗

Motorcycles as the starting point

The collector’s own motocross background offers a way into the collection. Compare tyres, suspension and riding position, and ask which machines were actually used in races.

Large vehicles alongside

Military vehicles and tractors call for different power and off-road ability. Look at tyres, ground clearance and load function without guessing the type or use when documentation is missing.

A preference for local

Everyday old objects from the municipality itself place technology alongside local life. Provenance is essential here: ask which object demonstrably comes from Dalfsen or the surrounding area.

Before you go

There is no website of its own and no public inventory. By appointment only, and all basic information comes from secondary local sources. Ask in advance which parts of the collection are accessible.
