[BNL] Mapping all LEGO stores in the Benelux

Lately I've been working on a map of all LEGO stores - both official and privately owned - in the Benelux area. If you click the link you'll see I have found a number of shops near my hometown of Rotterdam, a few in the wider area and not so many to the further north, east and south of me. That's why I want to ask you - the members of this forum - to suggest the stores and shops you think should be on this list.

I'm not looking for chain stores like Bart Smit, Dreamland or Intertoys. I aim for the privately owned shops that often maintain a webshop and have a small brick and mortar store or pick-up point.

So if you live in the Benelux and buy LEGO from a store that's not on my list, please share it in this thread!

    Nicely done! You've got all the ones I buy from in the so can't help, but handy to have them all in one place.

    Hoping to be in Amsterdam in a few days, and appreciate your map. Any other special places folks like to shop for LEGO in that area? PM me if you would like to meet up there. Thanks!

     Shops like Bart Smit Stock a good supply of Lego. Not sure where there is one in A'dam, but that's my 2 cents :) enjoy your trip!

    Your best bet in Amsterdam would be Bart Smit or Intertoys. Follow the links to view their locations. Enjoy the city!

    I see you've got ToysXL in your list. There's one in Arnhem with a nice collection at Woonboulevard (adress: Heerlenstraat 11A 6845 AD Arnhem).

    @Galactus Thanks but as far as ToysXL goes I've only added the ones they label as LEGO stores themselves as you can see at the bottom of this page.

    I've been to all three of these at least once and they are pretty huge - much bigger than the 'normal' LEGO sections found in other ToysXL stores (and they all have pretty big LEGO sections in their stores). These ToysXL / LEGO stores will also have some old stock sometimes. I have found discontinued Cars, Star Wars and Super Heroes sets at these places.

    If you think that's too far off though I'd recommend Cadeauhuis in Ede. Their shop is pretty small but it's nice and they have the UCS Falcon built up under glass! At least when I was there - can't say for sure if it'd still be there. I hope my list has been of help to you and I would love to hear if you find any other LEGO stores in the area!

    I live in Rotterdam myself and have been discovering a lot in surrounding cities and villages and it shows when you look at the map. But it could really use some more stores in the east and north of the country - as well as Belgium and Luxembourg.

    Ah, I didn't know that. Thanks for clarifying. I don't know of any other stores in my region that would qualify as LEGO store on your list.
