Planning your visit to Bruges
Bruges is a small, walkable city — its main art institutions, including the Groeninge Museum and Memling in Sint-Jan, are all within the medieval centre. The Groeninge holds the finest collection of early Flemish primitives in the world. Most museums close on Mondays; a Bruges City Card is good value for multiple visits.
