Tekno Museum: lorries in miniature

The Tekno Museum in De Lier presents scale models of lorries. The collection is linked to the manufacturer and is combined with a museum shop.

Plan your visit ↗

Small details, big vehicles

A lorry model makes the cab, cargo area and finish visible on a small scale. Look at how different versions differ from one another, without focusing only on familiar company names or colours.

A manufacturer as the collecting framework

The display focuses on Tekno models. That is a clear selection, not a complete overview of all miniature brands or of the whole history of lorries.

Browsing and shopping

The museum and the shop are two parts of what is on offer. If you are coming for a particular model or a guided tour, you can discuss this in advance; a description of the collection does not guarantee that every item is on view.

Before you go

Regular visits are on Saturday morning. A weekday shop or collection appointment does not automatically mean museum access; check public holidays and group options separately.
