Located in the beautiful medieval city of Bruges (also dubbed the ‘Venice of the North’) the Groeningemuseum provides a varied overview of the history of Belgian visual art.
The collection includes works by Belgian painters dating back to the Flemish primitives in the 14th century all the way to modern art in the 1900s.
Along with work by René Magritte, Emile Claus, Gerard David, Bram Bogart, and many more, visitors can glimpse at masterpieces such as the Moreel Triptych by Hans Memling and the iconic Madonna with Canon Joris Van der Paele by Jan van Eyck.
The museum sometimes hosts temporary exhibitions too, so you can check the schedule ahead of your visit. Notably, tickets to the museum also include entry to the Artentshuis Museum on the other side of Arentshof Garden.
