About Bruges

Bruges is a medieval time capsule of a town on the coast of northwest Belgium. Its entire historic downtown is a UNESCO World Heritage Site for its well-preserved canals, cobblestone streets, and Gothic architecture that have stood the test of time. Many towns along the coast as you head south from the Hague to Bruges have similar styles, but few are as old or as complete as Bruges’ downtown.

In the 1600s, Bruges drew in artistic minds from across Europe and became the home of the Flemish Primitive Art movement. Today the Groeningemuseum holds invaluable works by artists of the time, such as Jan van Eyck. About 8 million people visit Bruges annually, many of whom are art and history buffs, or just want to do a romantic boat ride through its many canals.
