Cosa vedere a Bruges

Brugge's Unmissable Highlights

Brugge’s UNESCO-listed city center preserves its 14th-century layout, centered around the Market and Burg squares. Key architectural landmarks include the 83-meter Belfry tower and the Gothic Church of Our Lady, home to Michelangelo’s marble Madonna and Child. The city's artistic heritage is showcased in the Groeninge Museum’s Flemish Primitives collection and the applied arts of the Gruuthuse Museum. Visitors can explore the medieval canal network by boat or visit the historic Basilica of the Holy Blood and the city's last family-owned brewery, De Halve Maan.
