Carel Wüst collects cars – and their stories

The Wüst family’s private car museum shows classic cars and youngtimers in Oud-Beijerland; older and incorrect listings sometimes place it in Dordrecht.

Plan your visit ↗

Classic and young side by side

Compare a classic car with a youngtimer in terms of bodywork, dashboard and engineering. The differences reveal changing ideas about comfort and use.

The story behind the car

The display focuses on the history of the vehicles. For any car you choose, ask which provenance is documented and which information is passed on by word of mouth.

Museum and business linked

The collection is connected to Carel Wüst Classics. Distinguish between museum objects, vehicles for sale or hire, and temporary displays.

Before you go

There is no fixed public weekly schedule. Visits are possible during normal working hours if someone is present, but always phone ahead on 0186-724157. The actual location is Jan van der Heijdenstraat 34 in Oud-Beijerland; do not travel to Dordrecht on the basis of an older listing.
