Hennie Kuiper Wielermuseum: bikes on which races turned

At Erve Kuiper, bikes, jerseys, medals and an eleven-metre timeline centre on Hennie Kuiper’s cycling career.

Plan your visit ↗

Three bikes, three races

Olympic, World Championship and Paris-Roubaix bikes make choices of equipment and set-up comparable. Look for differences in handlebars, gearing and wheels, and link them to the course.

The cobblestone and the timeline

A winner’s cobblestone and a chronological wall link a single tangible object to moments in his career. Walk the timeline first, then place the bike at the right point.

Sixteen team jerseys

Framed jerseys with texts show changes of team and sponsor. Compare colour and material, but let the caption determine which season and story belong to each.

Before you go

Opening is linked to De IJskuip. Check that location before you set off; guided tours are for groups of fifteen or more.
