City of museums

From the Flemish Primitives to present day art, from the classic ‘fine arts’ to archeological excavations, furniture, silverware, folklore, etc. Bruges has it all. Various ‘Flemish Primitives’ Masters, such as Hans Memling and Jan van Eyck were home in Bruges and even Michelangelo has a clear link with Bruges. The only work of art made by him to have left Italy during his lifetime, namely a marble statue of Our Lady can be marveled in the Church of Our Lady. Also worthwile are the Groeningemuseum, with 600 years of different style paintings, the Gruuthusemuseum, the Memling Museum, the Museum of Folklore, the Guido Gezelle Museum, St. John's House, the Old St. John's Hospital (an absolute must-see), the Basilica of the Holy Blood (displays an ampul supposedly containing Christ's blood), the Diamond Museum, etc.
The finest hotels in Brugge are all a stone's throw away from those museums.
