Zuid-Hollands Autobus Museum

Over Zuid-Hollands Autobus Museum

It all started on May 1, 1979, a group of lovers of old buses joined hands to buy an old city bus from The Hague. In the same month the foundation was established and two months later the refurbished bus was presented to the Hague public. The ambitions of the new foundation do not lie, the The Hague Bus Museum not only concentrates on the city bus in The Hague but wants to collect buses that have played an important role in The Hague and the surrounding area. Now years later a collection of over 30 buses has been built from the period 1940-2000. This makes the collection much wider and larger than only vehicles from The Hague. A representative of each type has been preserved in the collection from almost the entire province of South Holland. The foundation Zuid-Hollands Autobus Museum (shortly ZHAM) was founded on May 23, 2018. Exactly 39 years after the founding of the Haags Bus Museum, 23 May 1979. The purpose of the Zuid-Hollands Autobus Museum is to realize and maintain a registered museum that preserves the history of the bus in the province of South Holland on basis of a collection with associated knowledge, which is collected, managed, preserved and presented in a heritage way.
