The 33 best churches in Bruges

Stepping inside this church is an awe-inspiring experience. The scale of the architecture is simply breathtaking, with soaring ceilings and a real sense of historic grandeur. The church is filled with incredible works of art, from masterpiece paintings to intricate sculptures. The stained-glass windows are particularly beautiful, filling the space with colored light and creating a truly peaceful atmosphere. A must-visit for anyone who appreciates history, art, and stunning architecture.

Amazing artwork - paintings, exquisitely carved wooden pulpit and confessionals and the treasure of Bruges, Madonna and Child. Worth every penny to get into the paid area. Even if you are not strongly religious, the artwork is awe inspiring and worth it for the history and the beauty.

Beautiful church. Peaceful when you visit. Nice well maintained architecture. No ticket needed. Good place to take photo of whole church are on the museum close by. Enjoy !

This is a must-see see church when visiting Bruges. The church is famous for housing a Michelangelo sculpture of Madonna with child. Entrance into the church is free but you have to purchase a ticket to view the sculpture. The church tower is the tallest structure in the city and 3rd tallest brick tower in the world. Take time to admire the flying butresses that support the massive tower.

One of the most exquisite Gothic churches I've visited. I also appreciated seeing their impressive art collection both old and new.

This is one of Bruges’ most iconic landmarks and a masterpiece of Gothic architecture. Its soaring brick tower, reaching 115.5 meters (379 feet), is the tallest structure in Bruges and one of the tallest brick towers in the world. Construction began in the 13th century and continued for two centuries, resulting in a harmonious blend of architectural styles. The church is especially famous for housing Michelangelo’s Madonna and Child, the only one of his sculptures to have left Italy during his lifetime. Inside, visitors can also admire ornate altarpieces, medieval tombs of Burgundy nobility, and beautiful stained-glass windows. The tombs of Charles the Bold and Mary of Burgundy are particularly noteworthy for their historical and artistic significance. The Church of Our Lady is both a spiritual sanctuary and an artistic treasure, offering insight into the religious and cultural richness of medieval Bruges.

Beautiful and iconic church to visit while in Bruges. A rare opportunity to see a sculpture created by Michelangelo. The details in the Madonna of Bruges marble sculpture are astonishing! You will pay €6 per adult to see the sculpture but it is worth the opportunity. The church is in a beautiful location and near the most popular tourist locations.

If you just looked at it from the outside, it’s kind of dark. It’s kinda old. It’s kind of scary. But inside, is a beautiful piece! Visiting the Basilica of the Holy Blood is a two-part experience. The lower chapel, dedicated to St. Basil, is a striking contrast to the upper one. It's a rare example of Romanesque architecture in the region, featuring a dark, somber atmosphere with heavy pillars and stone vaulting. Climbing the staircase leads you to the vibrant upper chapel, a dazzling display of colorful Gothic and Neo-Gothic art. This ornate space is breathtaking, with intricate stained glass windows, rich tapestries, and beautiful paintings. The main attraction is the revered relic of the Holy Blood, housed in a magnificent golden reliquary. The transition from the austere lower chapel to the glittering upper chapel creates a powerful and memorable journey.

It’s easy to miss the Basilica of the Holy Blood, as it’s tucked away in a corner of Burg Square. The basilica has two chapels: a lower chapel and an upper chapel. The lower chapel, dedicated to St. Basil the Great, is a beautiful example of Romanesque architecture that has remained largely unchanged for centuries. The upper chapel is built in the Gothic style and was renovated in the 19th century, offering a stunning contrast to the simpler, historic lower level. Admission to both chapels is free, making it an accessible and rewarding stop. Adjacent to the basilica is a small museum (entrance fee €5) that traces the fascinating history of the chapel and the relic of the Holy Blood. In my opinion, this is an absolute must-see when visiting Bruges—a place where history, art, and spirituality come together in a remarkable way.

Visiting the Basilica of the Holy Blood was one of the most emotional and memorable moments of my trip. Nestled on the historic Burg Square, this church may look modest from the outside, but once you step inside, it reveals an atmosphere filled with reverence, history, and beauty that truly takes your breath away. I felt incredibly special and grateful to be there. to stand in such a sacred space and even take a quiet moment to pray for something deeply personal. The basilica consists of two chapels: the lower Romanesque chapel of Saint Basil the Great, built in the 12th century, and the upper Gothic chapel, which was later renovated in the 19th century with vibrant paintings and intricate decorations. The church is believed to house a precious relic of the Holy Blood of Jesus Christ, brought to Bruges from the Holy Land around 1150 by Count Thierry of Alsace after the Second Crusade. This relic is displayed in an ornate vial, and during certain times of the day, visitors can approach it closely to pay their respects or say a prayer. The interior is breathtaking, richly painted arches, colorful mosaics, and stained-glass windows that glow with biblical scenes when sunlight filters through. The details on the wooden ceiling and the patterns on the columns are exquisite; every corner seems to tell a story. I couldn’t help but feel humbled and moved, surrounded by centuries of faith and devotion. Even though it’s a popular site, people speak softly, adding to the peaceful, sacred feeling of the place. It’s not just a historical monument, it’s a space where you can truly feel a connection to something timeless and spiritual. Visiting this basilica was a profound and unforgettable experience.

This Basilica is amazingly calm and peaceful. Whether you’re religious or not, you can feel it in the ambience. The relic was on display at 12pm, after the 11AM mass downstairs. (My husband and I attended on a Wednesday.) The stuff are nice and friendly. You can take pictures of the Chapel but not of the relic. Come & pray, and be respectful. This is such a sacred place ❤️

My family and me Visited from Florida, USA. The Basilica of the Holy Blood is absolutely beautiful and peaceful. It’s a stunning Roman Catholic church in Bruges that holds a relic of the Holy Blood, which makes the experience even more meaningful. A must-see when exploring the city!

This small basilica is located in Bruges, Belgium. It's claim to fame is the fact that it is alleged to house a vial of Christ's blood which is on display. The Church itself is beautiful with it's medieval decor. It can be regarded as an important stop for those interested in religious history.

Beautiful church from century. Wooden architecture and peaceful there. The place where holy blood was kept. Enjoy !

This 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.

Absolutely beautiful cathedral. Parts of it almost felt like being in an art gallery as there are lots of old works of art. Also of interest are the splendid stained glass windows, which were particularly vibrant on this sunny day, and the memorial stones. Free to visit but donations appreciated, even if donate via lighting a candle.

I have been there on Saturday and there was no entrance fee! The inside is both art and history museum! Definitely worth visiting! The voluntary worker was quite friendly and extremely eager to help me to learn about the Cathedral and art pieces in it.

As a five organist I was very happy to walk into happen to hear a full recital which sounded very nice from the new pipe organ near the entrance. I noticed also a second one on the side so at least two pipe organs in this church another one had three pretty neat, pretty impressive and the church is nice as well

Another beautiful cathedral in the centre of Gent. Amazing architecture and richly adorned. The pulpit (at least I think it was the pulpit) in itself is quite incredible. Free to enter

Beautiful small Cathedral with many beautiful artworks. A worthwhile visit. Quiet enough for silent prayer and contemplation.

Beautiful church, statues, huge paintings, carpets, all stunning. There is inner museum with unbelievable items. Someone was playing the big Organs.. 🎶 Entry was for free.

One of the most impressive church interiors you can see in Brugge, with exquisite art in Baroque style and a very large painting of the Last Judgment.

Very beautiful and quiet. There were only two other travellers/families when I was there. Someone came in and immediately exclaimed “oh my goodness”. It definitely is a must go away from the crowds!

Lovely 9:00AM Sunday Mass (in Dutch)

Amazing landscapes. Very safe city. Very kind people!

Super pretty church with amazing painting and tapisseries

Possibly the most beautiful church in Brugge, bar none. The exterior just doesn't prepare you for the interior. Go back many times because one visit just isn't enough.

The best reason to visit this church is the humongous painting of Jan Garemijn, the largest single canvas painting in the whole of Bruges.

Very nice art museum with an interesting exhibit about medieval books. Lacked a bit of variety because you can only see so many paintings of Jesus on the cross before it gets boring. The highlight for me the Boschs tryptic. Stunning. Overall for the price it was pretty good.

A museum of the history of Flamish art starting with the primitive artist until today. A must see in Bruges if only for the Jan van Eyck masterpiece! Very well organized, flows chronological from room to room, with good description for the period and the highlilighted pieces.

Lovely museums with very friendly staff and incredible collections. After a busy day enjoying Bruges with its beautiful canals and old buildings, this is such a nice and quiet escape from the crowd. It might not be as big as other big museums in Belgium but I still feel like it’s one of those that is worth to visit.

I had the best time visiting the Groeninge Museum today. Epic masterpieces and so many of the fun creepy depictions of demons from the renaissance art that keep you guessing. The audio guide was helpful and they have a great gift shop with postcards and trinkets from the collection. Would recommend if visiting Bruges!

A small yet truly remarkable collection of paintings. The staff were incredibly friendly and really enhanced the experience. The entire venue is laid out in a clear and logical manner, so you never feel confused or overwhelmed. It's simple to navigate through the exhibition and genuinely appreciate each piece without feeling drained. A fantastic place to view works by Flemish artists in a quiet, well-organized environment.

A very nice museum of fine arts. Sufficient explanation to help a layman like me to get around. Didn’t have time to finish as I was too hungry. Will definitely visit again to finish it.

Must see in place in Bruges. Unique collection of medieval art from Flemish masters like: Bosch, Yan van Eyck.

The building was beautiful and hard to bel it was a hospital in it's day. More like a church (part of it was a monastery and the hospital was 'staffed' by nuns 100s of years ago. A lot of the displays were of art pieces from the time with a some amount of info relating to the care of patients. Well presented, though and an audio guide was available. Purchased a ticket that included the apothecary.

I was supported by kind staff during a sudden nosebleed, of which the volume could be demonstrated from the elevator scene from the shining. Regardless, the kind staff rescued me by fast tracking me to a neighbouring museum to access the toilet and sink. The museum was also worth visiting, with an excellent exhibition.

Gorgeous old building featuring beautiful courtyard that makes you feel like you've been transported back to medieval times. The price is reasonable for the experience you receive. The exhibits are well-organized, and the stories behind them are really engaging - the hospitality theme and the layout of the exhibition guide you easily . And let's not forget the star of the place, Memling. The pieces are truly remarkable, and just the collection itself is worth the trip.

we visited the museum with my family and we highly recommend it. the atmosphere is authentic - a bit depressing but we liked it. the whole areal is beautiful. visited both the hospital and the pharmacy and it was splendid.

We expected more a view of how the workings of a medieval hospital were. We got a beatifull collection of art connected to the medieval medicine and care of patients. It took us more than 3 hours to follow the exhibition

I had extremely high hopes for this museum but it felt a little too slick and contrived to me. The juxtaposition of the old and new immersive elements doesn't work for me.

Beautiful building and interesting museum. Interactive exhibition upstairs was fun.

A beautiful and historically important place. The Grote Markt is lined with beautiful medieval buildings. There are a lot of restaurants and cafes around. You can also just stay in the square and amaze at the buildings and soak up the atmosphere. But beware, you will not be alone here as the square is packed with people - even in low season - it is never quiet here. A must visit place when in Bruges.

The atmosphere is amazing and the architecture is gorgeous, I definitely recommend the horse and buggy ride to see more of the hidden locations of the city center. The guides are very knowledgeable. So many places to eat and drink

Beautiful square plaza surrounded by iconic buildings with stunning architecture. There are some benches were you can chill for a moment observing the vista. There are several cafes and restaurants around. Highly recommended.

Bustling charm at Market Square 🏰🛍️🐎🚤 The Wednesday market is a must-see—full of local goods, vibrant energy, and great finds! Enjoyed carriage rides, boat sightings, and other fun activities that bring the square to life. Recommended for anyone wanting to soak up Bruges’ atmosphere and enjoy a mix of tradition and leisure 🌟🎡.

Beautiful and lively square in the center of Bruges! Surrounded by charming medieval buildings, cafés, and horse carriages – it truly feels like stepping into a fairytale. I loved the atmosphere, especially the sound of the bells from the Belfry tower. It’s the perfect spot to relax, take photos, and enjoy the city’s historical vibes. Highly recommend visiting in the morning for a peaceful walk or in the afternoon to enjoy a drink on a sunny terrace. One of the most iconic places in Belgium – don’t miss it if you’re in Bruges

Bruges is a beautifully preserved medieval town. Its canals, bridges, squares, and parks are a delight. It's a place for contemplation, perfect for enjoying a coffee and good company. Peace and tranquility permeate the entire town.

Central of Bruges ! Old architecture and nice environment. We found the market on the day we visited. Lots of tourist there. Enjoy !

Lovely place .you can get a drink and biscuits. Staff was very informative and friendly.

The best hidden gem of Bruges! We found out about it during our night tour. A private chapelle from the 15 century, always owned by the same family for 17 generations. Quiet and majestic, with an interesting history that is presented in a small museum

Interesting place to visit, off the beaten track when it’s busy in Bruges. The crypt is an interesting feature.

Anselm Adorne was a complete renaissance man, a mover and shaker, who travelled from Genoa to Scotland to Bruges to Jerusalem . He's a major character in Dorothy Dunnet's Nicolo series. We were delighted by the maps, artifacts and descriptions. Then we had coffees sitting in Anselm's garden.

Beautiful Family domain and private church, full of history and maintained thru several generations. Visited at least three time while visiting Bruges, brought my sister and her husband too and they were impressed. One of the quiet nice places to visit in town!

If our host is to be believed, this is the only privately owned church in Bruges (run by the 17th generation of the original family who built it!) - we almost missed it but are so glad to have seen this beautifully preserved place in a city full of history.

Quiet Oasis a short walk from the busy centre. The estate is 17th generation family owned, with a little museum, the Jerusalem chapel and a garden. Around the corner from the lace museum, it's easy to connect visiting both.

This area of the city is quiet and peaceful as it is still occupied by a religious order. Audrey Hepburn's "The Nun's Story" was filmed here.

Found this church as we were walking along this peaceful passages. This church is surrounded by trees and quiet atmosphere where one can relax and pray in silence. Very close to the centre of Bruges. It's free to enter the church. A painting of the Visitation of Holy Mary to St Elizabeth is located inside this church.

Begijnhofkapel is a Chapel located inside Begijnhof in Bruges. It is a Roman Catholic Chapel dedicated to St John and St Ursula.

Small little church from 1245. Worth the visit before entering the city of brugges.

Well worth a visit especially in Spring, so tranquil and beautiful. We visited on International Women’s Day which seemed so poignant.

Visited on my annual group pilgrimage & staying in the monetary of 800years. Having daily special worship in both the Chapels. Few 'Sisters' there so special & friendly. Pax-et-Bonum

Beautiful old church

Beautiful building with a rich history. The ground floor has free access. The first floor is paid and also gives you access to the neighbouring building. You get a good historical explanation of Bruges and its port. The staff was super helpful and had good recommendations.

SPECTACULAR. Also note this is still an active town hall (it is also Belgium's oldest town hall) and city leaders still meet at the table on the upper floor that I have in one of the photos. It is one of the oldest buildings in the entire region. The city has been governed from here for more than 600 years.

I'm not commenting just on the City Hall, but Bruges in general. A beautiful historic city. Full of charm and elegance and although part of a bigger tour for my wife and I , a city easily accessible from the UK. We spent two days here exploring the city streets , marvelling at the architecture and culture of the city . The Beer and chocolate has to be sampled but to just take in the sights is pleasure enough .

Such a cool museum! Highly recommend. The medieval architecture is beautiful. There’s a room with a map of the area and video overlays that go through the history from 500 AD to present day of the area. Very cool

For 10 euros the self guided tour is good. You get access to the town hall and a small side room with a 3d projection map of the history of the city. The town hall is absolutely stunning. You are provided a big card to read that described the murals around the hall.

Awesome spot to really get in the vibe of the city. The hall itself is stunning, and there's this AR exhibit that goes deep into the entire history of the city, complete with narration in three languages through headphones. Plus, it's affordable too - totally loved it!

We liked the tour in the area. Especially with the local market at the square which you can shop for great vegetables and fruits.

Excellent example of how wealthy landowners and merchants would have lived. Beautifully preserved, multiple floors, and loads of period furniture, artifacts, and exhibits with explanations in English. No elevators may discourage the non-climbers. Don’t miss the restored chapel inside the home on the third floor with the secret windows that overlooks into the church next door. This area allowed attendance in your pajamas without the lower classes noticing.

My wife and I enjoyed this museum with a friend while visiting Bruges. The collection includes many fascinating items.

Fascinating and magnificent museum in the former home of a wealthy brewer in Brugge from the 15thC. It has recently been extensively restored. Great insights (available in several languages including English) on society, business, and lifestyle of the times. It is important to note that there are no elevators that I was aware of so for anyone with mobility issues accessing the higher floors will be difficult.

So much information to learn about the history and the city of Brugge in this museum. It is well organized and presented professionally. I enjoyed going through all the rooms and reading and seeing century old books like the first city ledgers, the agreements between political heads. All very fascinating. Some of the views from this museum are absolutely magnificent- the balcony has the best view. There is a lot more and if you enjoy history and have the time to peruse all this museum has to offer, 2-3 hours would be sufficient. Take note that the spiral staircases are a little steep and narrow.

Visited with the Brugge Museum pass as we had 72hrs in this beautiful city. An interesting and informative museum with a couple of good views of the adjoining area.

Good place to take the photo of the church here.

Get the Brugelge museum pass! I suggest not getting it until you're ready to dedicate the time for the museums. You can get it at any participating location. Ok this place was AMAZING. Built in the 1400's by the advisor to the king, the family was so wealthy, they had their house connected to the church as well as their own chapel area so they didn't have to leave their house technically. Weird flex, but ok. The artifacts that are kept in this 17 room manorhouse/museum are bar none. Tapestrys, paintings, lace, books, ledgers, coins, pottery, embroidery, statues, silver, you name it! Theres also a part where you can stand on a balcony and have an amazing view! The house itself is magnificent. Well worth a visit.

Amazing organ recital experience. It was a free concert. And given by a true organist.

Very peaceful church.

Nice architecture inside. Looks bigger inside than you may think looking from outside.

Beautiful church, with natural light and small exposure of their treasure. Also two portable Byzantine orthodox icons are exposed.

Very beautiful church, during triennale organ play corresponds with the carousel outside, which is made by an artist and has skull passengers only

A really beautiful church. There are lots of helpful signs in a multitude of languages so you know what you are looking at. Very welcoming and peaceful.

Church staff was chilling enjoying sunflower seeds.

Such a beautiful church, was really quiet and peaceful when we went. Really enjoyed looking at all the artwork and stained glass.

This is a must see! In the United States, something that is 200 years old is VERY old for us. So, seeing a Church built in the 1200s was fascinating and such a privilege to see. Take your time and enjoy the artwork on display- it is truly remarkable! I could have spent all day here! Kudos to all who have spent the time, effort and money to preserve this church.

Sint-Jakobskerk, AKA St James Church, is a beautiful Catholic church that was originally built in the thirteenth century. It was expanded in the fifteenth century and remodeled a couple of hundred years later. There is an impressive collection of paintings and painted glass windows that makes an extended trip inside the church essential.

A small Catholic church in Bruges built in 1240, and enlarged in 1459 to accompany the enrichment of the city.

Saw a modular synth concert here. The vibe was amazing. The reverb was great and the projections along with the painting and sculptures was very very cool.

Beautiful medieval Cathedral with well preserved interior and stained glass windows

Lovely old church, some very interesting paintings

Gorgeous church with a little museum attached. There's so many stunning items of religious art packed into this unassuming building. The church itself is also heavily decorated and absolutely gorgeous. Definitely recommend strolling along the canal to get to this church, it's really worth it!

A small church a bit further away from the city center of Brugge. It is about 20 min walk along the canals. You can visit the museum next to it too. It is not that big, but the collection is interesting.

Not worth the 7€ entry in my opinion. The ‘museum’ ist just a few paintings and things and the church is not among the most beautiful I’ve seen. If it was free or just a few euros, I’d say it’s worth it, but not for that entry fee.

Beautiful building with a great collection of interesting and well preserved materials. The staff is friendly and helpful. I envy the people who go to church here - they have an awesome location for their services!

Walked 30 mins with my museum pass to find the church is closed for a private function.

Great place to watch the world go by.

Taste the different types of chocolates and learn the chocolate history in details. The last part is another important one to taste during cooking.

The Provinciaal Hof (Provincial Court) is a grand neo-Gothic building located on the Markt square in Bruges, Belgium. Originally constructed in the late 19th century on the site of the former Cloth Hall, it served as the administrative center for the province of West Flanders. The building’s impressive architecture features intricate stonework, pointed arches, and decorative spires, reflecting the Gothic revival style popular at the time. Inside, it houses elegant meeting rooms and halls that were used for provincial government functions. Though it no longer serves as the seat of government, the Provinciaal Hof remains a significant historical and architectural landmark in Bruges. Its location on the bustling Markt square, near the Belfort, makes it a popular spot for visitors admiring the city’s rich heritage and stunning architecture.

Another stunning public building in Bruges. This is free to visit and is worth checking out. Again spectacular ceilings and fabulous light fixtures.

Such a lovely building to visit whilst in Bruges. We popped in on a rainy day and were pleasantly surprised . A beautiful building that has undergone some marvelous renovation work . And it's free to visit . I'd recommend visiting if in the area .

I love this well-preserved medieval city. The palace is a beautiful place—a must-see! The same goes for the city hall.

Beautiful neo-Gothic building with impressive architecture and a lovely historic vibe. A must-see for architecture and history lovers while in Bruges!

We recommend to visit . It is free entry, provided portraits, art works, documentary of renovations and toilets, cafe inside.

If u visit Brougge , u should visit this place too. Visit is open and free to all people. Amazing place.

If you're into contemporary art, this is a must-see spot. What I also found interesting is that this is NOT a decommissioned church. Instead, it is described as an "activity-based church" offering contemporary spirituality through art.

What an unforgettable experience! Last night’s Candlelight concert in Bruges—a beautiful tribute to Adele—was truly mesmerizing. Surrounded by over a thousand candles in a stunning church setting, the atmosphere felt magical and intimate. The incredibly talented pianist, Michelle Lynne, brought Adele’s songs to life with such emotion and skill, creating an evening full of wonder and delight. Thank you, Michelle Lynne, for your beautiful performance! A special thanks to Robin, one of the Fever team members, for the warm and wonderful welcome. Thank you, for making the night unforgettable!

Interesting concept of church. You can even have a coffee for 2€, but the machine is too loud and disrupts the ambience

We went to listen to Vivaldi’s 4 Seasons. The concert in Brugge was spectacular and soul touching! Thank you!

The exterior is perfect, but...its not a church, but a home for "installations" and new age stuff that do not have anything to do with Catholicism and/or tradition or art. I was guided to...the toilets which had an abstract....Madonna and child ... Its completely sad that in such a beautiful city with a tradition of centuries and nice museums this situation is accepted, but...welcome to Europe of 2025...

One of the weirdest yet the nicest thing I saw in Brugges. From outside it appears as a normal church but inside... - artistic installations - a wonderful swing - a sand pool Outside there is a statue called "the homeless Jesus". I think that this is not a church anymore but more like an event venue. Absolutely recommended.

Some people call this the crazy church. It's less of a house of worship and more of an art/architecture project now. The interior changes often, depending on the exhibition that is going on. It's really interesting inside. They have a swinging chair dangling from the ceiling.

A very interesting church with some wall paintings showing the way to the cross. I know I am not a local but found it hard to understand what the different paintings related to as there were no English translations that I could see. It was very quiet and peaceful and good to spend time here a little bit away from the city centre.

Impressive building simplex and old

Quiet beautiful church. Free entry. Appears to maybe be working church. I was the only person there which was a stark difference from any other churches in the city. a pleasure.

A must see place when visiting Brugge Special atmosphere The 14 stages calvary is an impressive artwork

A church with light and space. A church like a musem

A most see in Bruges

💒🏩

Fantastic hidden gem worth a quick visit. Beautiful little sanctuary with a lot of history which the nun that shows you around will be happy to tell you about. They speak good English and French. Your visit will only take about an hour. Free to visit, but please give a little donation to help them maintain the convent.

Atmospheric building, nice garden and impressive library. We followed an interesting tour with a friendly guide who introduced us in the history of this convent. The church is amazing.

A beautiful, peaceful, and historic Covent which is lead by such wonderful sisters. I would highly recommend any tourists to make a visit to admire such an amazing landmark.

A wonderful place to see. If you get a chance to visit please do. Very short hours but worth it.

Hiden.. but verry nice :)

A wondrous hidden gem, a must see, you will be amazed

Not much to see, except it is a beautiful building from the outside.

Outstanding visit, no crowds, only 8 €, Michelangelo's Madonna with Child is simply stunning... the rest of the museum is also rather interesting and educational... Love the rotating 6 language guides beside

This church is an amazing place with beautiful art, statuary and windows. The Bruges Madonna is the highlight of the visit. An important piece of art with a fascinating story. Well worth the visit.

Great massive museum. You’re gonna feel like that you’re traveling in a time machine. Must see it!

Love old European churches like this. Very sacred ground historically whether you believe in the faith or not. This tower is the biggest I have ever seen. Very beautiful inside and many beautiful areas on the outside as well. The staff is so nice and accommodating. They are willing to help you in any way possible. Great experience!

Well organized small museum. Many elegant art works.there are detailed multi-language descriptions for almost all the exhibited art works. 7 euro ticket is well worth. The beautiful sculpture of Michelangelo is as also here, it’s the only sculpture outside Italy in his lifetime. Amazing

Visiting old churches is always worth it when visiting old cities in Europe. The artwork is beautiful. The architecture is beautiful. I do love statues of Jesus, Mary, Joseph and any other saint. It was no cost to visit this church in Bruges.

The museum access allows you to explore the other side of the church. Beautiful Madonna statue.

The Jerusalem Church in Bruges feels less like a historic site and more like a vanity project for a wealthy family. The entry fee isn’t justified by what you get: a narrow look at the family’s story with little context about the time or place they lived in. The church itself is more a shrine to the family than anything religious. The garden is just a plain grass field, nothing special. There was also a temporary exhibit on garden paintings, but it featured cheap reproductions and actual bugs crawling on the canvases. It might look intriguing from the outside, but I wouldn't recommend going in.

It's only partially open at the moment (some restorations are being done). But the chapel is open as are the gardens and you can wander around the complex. The day I was there they had reduced the admission to 5Euro so definitely worth wandering around. And the Sint-Anna Quarter is a fabulous area to explore - very local and while I was there barely a tourist in sight so that's cool too.

10€ entrance fee and closure on Sundays? This is also not included in the Bruges museum pass! An historical religious temple can't be this expensive, especially these times. It's simply unethical. All attractions are already crazy expensive in Bruges, and the least they should do is list themselves in the museum pass. Otherwise, they should reduce the price

Totally unique and special local experience. To explore an ancient estate that has been in the same family since 1400s is incredible. There are historic artifacts and fascinating history - it helps that it has had continuity since the medieval period. Highly recommend as something unique in Bruges.

Great little museum that tells the story of Anselm Adornes. The estate and chapel have been in the same family for over 500 yeras

All cathedrals in Brugges, even including the Basilica of the Holy Blood are for FREE, and they ask 10€ entrance? This is just unethical. Time for Divine Justice won't be long...

Do not miss! Plenty of old sights in Bruges, but this was the best. A real treasure.

We had a spectacular tour with Xavier- we saw areas of the city that would have been hard to get to in the few days we were there and the countryside and Damme were beautiful! Xavier is quite knowledgeable and our family loved learning the history of the area from him.

With a group of international colleagues we had a guided tour in Bruges by Crusade.be. After a welcome drink Xavier took us through the city and told us many stories about the buildings and its history. Xavier is a very passionated guide and kept everybodies attention during the >2hr walk. We ended up in a local pub with beer and tapas. Thank you very much Xavier for the excellent organisation. We really recommend it.

Our tour guide was great and really showed us a lot of the city. He focused on the history of Bruges along with four tasting from some of his favorite places in the city. The meat and cheese were delicious, the fries were the best we had in Belgium, the beer was at a really cool brewery along the canal, and the chocolate was so good we had to buy some to take home. That being said he also told us that he has a purely tasting tour with 8 tasting but doesn't have as much about the history of the city. He even made a special stop at the basilica of the holy blood for us since we discussed missing seeing it earlier in the day. The tour is about 4 hours but there is plenty of stops during the tour to stop and take photos and eat and drink. We took the tour at 2pm and ended up just having some tapas later that night at our guides remediation since we had so much on the tour. Highly recommend. We are already talking about taking the 8 tasting tour next time.

We had a wonderful bike tour with Xavier in late March. Easy to schedule and coordinate our meet-up location. We had a delightful private tour with 2 adults and 2 kids (age 9 and 12). Total ride was about 13 miles and very manageable for everyone. Quality of bikes was excellent and fit well for kids. Xavier also provided helmets which was much appreciated. Our tour started in Brugge and we biked around the outer edge of the city and then a beautiful ride to Damme. Biking felt very safe - 90% on bike only paths and Xavier is very deliberate in where to cross any busier streets. Many stops along the way where Xavier shares interesting facts and history of Brugge, Damme and Belgium. We greatly enjoyed our ride and highly recommend Xavier for any of this tours.

Xavier's knowledge of the art, architecture, history and culture of Bruges is outstanding. He is skilled at conducting tours and conveys a lot of information in a relaxed manner . He customized the tour experience to incorporate both popular and less known (but significant) sites. Xavier: Thank you for a memorable introduction to the wonderful city of Bruges!

We were a large group of 5 lecturers and 50 students from Reading UK who are all studying culinary arts. We had an amazing visit to Bruges And were taken on an amazing tour sampling local produce with great detailed explanations about Bruges and all the food stops that we visited. The local guides were amazing with their knowledge and would highly recommend to anyone visiting. We will definitely be back for another trip in the future. 5 stars all round.

We had an wonderful bike tour of Bruges & Damm with Xavier. Xavier was very knowledgeable about the area and took us to some hidden gems near the countryside.
