Nationaal Bromfietsmuseum lines up makes row by row

Hundreds of mopeds, scooters, light motorcycles and cutaway engines fill an industrial unit in Waddinxveen with technology and recognition.

Plan your visit ↗

The make is only the beginning

Compare Puch, Kreidler, Zündapp or a Dutch make by frame, tank and drive. Read the year of manufacture and type before memory takes over the identification.

An engine laid open

A cross-section shows the cylinder, ignition and transmission. Ask what movement each part makes and why a two-stroke needs maintenance.

A private collection stays personal

The collection is closely linked to Jan Uittenbroek. Ask about the documentation for each vehicle and distinguish between memory and recorded provenance.

Before you go

Open every second Saturday of the month from 11.00; the fixed closing time is not on the homepage. Other days and groups by appointment only. Before you set off, check the exact date, closing time and accessibility of the industrial unit.
