Tattoo shops in Apeldoorn
Apeldoorn, Gelderland has 5 tattoo shops on the map. All 5 are mapped as tattoo studios proper, and each one is worth a portfolio browse before you commit — style varies more between shops than towns. Walk-ins are worth asking about, but the good custom work everywhere books weeks out.
This guide covers every tattoo shop we could verify in and around Apeldoorn (within about 25 km), built from OpenStreetMap's community-maintained data. Names you'll run into include Black Sword Tattoo Parlour and Sin66, plus Tattoo Mania. If a studio's missing from Apeldoorn's list, it probably just hasn't been mapped yet — the scene is bigger than any single dataset.

Tattoo tips for Apeldoorn
Picking a studio in Apeldoorn? A little homework pays off:
- Aftercare is half the tattoo at Black Sword Tattoo Parlour. Follow the artist's instructions, not your friend's. Keep it clean, keep it moisturised, keep it out of the sun.
- No swimming while it heals at Sin66. Pools, lakes, hot tubs — all off limits for two to three weeks. Fresh tattoos and bacteria don't mix.
- Match the artist to the style. Fine line, blackwork, traditional, realism — artists specialise. The best studio in town is the wrong one if the style's off.
- Don't pick the scabs. Healing tattoos itch and flake. Picking pulls ink out with the scab and leaves patchy spots.
Good to know
We searched about 25 km around Apeldoorn — that covers the town itself plus the surrounding communities you'd reasonably drive to. Listings come from OpenStreetMap, mapped by local volunteers, so a brand-new tattoo shop in Apeldoorn can take a while to appear. The 5 above are only as current as the community map. A tattoo shop that's shut, or a new one nobody's added yet, gets fixed with a single OpenStreetMap edit.
We don't rate studios or artists, and we never list prices — those are between you and the shop. What we list is the where and the how-to-find, from places real mappers have verified.
If you run one of the 5 listed here and something's wrong — a closure, a move, new hours — the fix is the same: update the shop on OpenStreetMap and the correction flows through to this page on the next daily refresh.
