Traveler reviews
Peterson Marti
★★★★★2 months agoWell worth a visit when in Bruges. Full of paintings, sculptures and breathtaking architecture. Easy access from the station and if are driving. Plenty of parking around and close from underground parking, just pay attention to car free zones which operates from 1pm to 6pm. Free entry.
Richard Torbett
★★★★★Edited 11 months agoThis church is well worth the time to visit. In addition to the beautiful architecture and stained glass, they have a large collection of art and a museum. There is not an entry fee. The original parts of the building were built in the late 1200s.
