Parking near DAF Museum
Prebooking
When you step into the DAF Museum, you take a leap through time. More than 100 vehicles, from the first trailers to army vehicles, sports cars, prototypes and the iconic DAF passenger cars, show how a small company from Eindhoven became world famous through daring innovation. Think of the Variomatic, the revolutionary transmission that put the Netherlands on the map and changed gear shifting forever. In special zones, you will discover not only the vehicles themselves, but also the stories behind them: from design and technology to the people who built them.
The truck section is an impressive highlight. Fully equipped fire engines, buses, military trucks and historic transport giants demonstrate how DAF has played a decisive role in logistics, safety and mobility over the decades.
The museum beautifully illustrates how DAF grew from a modest workshop into an international car brand. Hub van Doorne started his first small factory behind the building, helped by a local brewer who gave him a loan when no one else believed in him. From there, a brand grew that produced decades of innovation and helped shape Eindhoven into the technology capital it is today.
What makes the DAF Museum special is the combination of industrial history and friendly Brabant hospitality. The old brewery, with its brickwork, pillars and light upper floor, forms a warm backdrop that almost feels like walking through a living history book. The mix of authentic workshop spaces and modern exhibition halls creates an atmosphere in which nostalgia and innovation come together seamlessly.
The DAF Museum is more than just a car collection; it is a story about perseverance, creativity and regional identity. An ode to what people can build when given the freedom to experiment. For the people of Eindhoven, it is a place of recognition and pride. For visitors from outside the city, it is a surprising dive into a unique history.
