Nationaal Fietsmuseum Velorama

Four stories full of hundreds of bikes and their human-powered predecessors. Less focus on the most recent bikes. Mostly historical but very comprehensive from about 1800-1970. Clean toilets.

This museum offers an insight into the history of the bicycle, from its invention until today. The owners are very passionate about their collection and have preserved the historical bicycles perfectly.

What a wonderful museum! There are 3 floors absolutely filled with all different sorts of bicycles. Many are experimental ones that made me scratch my head in wonderment. They need a bigger space to put all the bikes they have in different stages of restoration. This is certainly worth a visit, even if you're not a cycling fan.

Very much recommended if you find yourself around the centre of Nijmegen. There is a varied collection spanning from the very first bicycles of the early 19th century to modern times (although the museum also has some examples of even earlier vehicles!) The staff is also eager to elaborate if one has more questions. We underestimated the size of the collection and were not able to give every part the attention it deserved, so we will definitely be returning! Many thanks to the people who put in the effort keeping this museum running 🤟

4-storey museum dedicated to bicycles! It can be seen with what love this exhibition was going. Before each exhibit there is a sign with interesting information. Sooo many interesting bikes. Even the toilet is antique themed with tiles depicting ancient bicycles! The cost is only 5 euros. Can't visit with a museum card. Also there is a buffet. If you are in the Netherlands, you should visit the Bicycle Museum)

The museum for bike lovers 😍 Cheap and worth it, the lady at the reception is lovely, she even answered our questions about the bikes. There is QR code you scan to get the main history and details to know: really interesting! I would say 1 - 1h30 for the entire visit if you read everything and are amazed.

The collection of bikes in this museum is beyond impressive. Still the delivery (at least in English) is questionable. 1) The QR code information is not delivered in chronological order making the guest wondering aimlessly around trying to find the correct story. Furthermore, other numbers - presumably for Dutch - are confusing as those do not match the QR code delivery. 2) Much of the information delivered is interesting but the focus seems to be too much on specific details, not giving the visitor an adequate perspective on the development of what we now refer to as a bicycle. With such an impressive collection, an improvement in delivery would make this experience amazing in English at least. But it does make you think of the development of the bicycle.

Very nice museum about the history of bikes. You'll find on three floors a lot of old bikes. The description is in Dutch. Next to the bikes you'll get information about the lightning, breaks,... After the visit you can visit the cozy cafe within the museum (Coffee, water, apple juice, gevulde koeken,...). The museum also includes a small shop with some books and posters. Be careful with the very steep stairs.
