De Bengel has been in the centre of Dordrecht for over 40 years and has an illustrious past. The shop has a name to uphold and has therefore always remained an independent and surprising bookshop. Besides all the top ten books, you will find titles that show an obstinate direction.
Its own imports are famous. Apart from important new editions, De Bengel has many discounted books, many of which are only available here. These offers are regularly spotted in national newspapers. But the Bengels are more than just booksellers. Under the motto -if it's not there, we'll do it ourselves-, De Bengel publishes books and organises high-profile lectures.
