The Burg

BACK TO…BRUGES CITY GUIDE

Bruges Burg Square (www.free-city-guides.com)

LOCATION

The Burg is linked to the Market Place by Breidelstraat. The streets around the edge of the small square are known as Burg and De Garre (see map below).

OUR VIEW ON BRUGES BURG SQUARE

Near to the Market Place is another smaller, but in our view prettier sqaure called the Burg. This area is the administrative centre of Bruges and is surrounded by more beautiful buildings and the tourist information centre is here too.  Highlights in the Burg include the old town hall, the Basilius church and the chapel of the Holy Blood which claims to have a vial of Christ’s blood.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ON BRUGES BURG SQUARE

The pretiest way to enter and leave the Burg is via the cobbled pathway of the same name which leads over a beautiful canal bridge. The Burg square also incorporates an attractive urban garden area.
