Museum Information
DESCRIPTION
Since the 19th century, the Wüst family has been passionately active in the field of mobility. First, as wheelwrights, the switch to motorized transport was a logical consequence. From universal garage via Volkswagen to Mercedes-Benz and then back to their “roots” with Carel Wüst Classics and the associated Carel Wüst Museum. As early as the 1990s, Carel Wüst (1942-1999), together with his brothers Cees and Chris, wanted to establish a car museum.
This vision took shape in 2012 when two of his sons, George and Marcel, opened the Carel Wüst Museum in the (then and eponymous) Mercedes-Benz branch in Dordrecht. The museum, like Carel Wüst Classics, is now located at Jan van der Heijdenstraat 34 in Oud-Beijerland. Here you will find 38 old-timers and, above all, many unexpected stories!
