Town Hall

The Town Hall of Bruges, also known as Stadhuis is one of the oldest city halls in the Netherlands. Located in Burg Square, the hall is built in an ornate Gothic style. The cobblestone street leads to a stone façade which is one of the oldest parts of the building. The City Hall showcases the splendour of Bruges over the centuries and depicts a wide range of artwork, right from the battle of the golden spurs.

It was built over a period between 1376-1421. The ground floor offers a free exhibition, demonstrating the evolution of the Burg Square evolution. A visual treat in the form of wall-painted murals, gothic-style windows, statues, and coats of the arm of subordinate towns is promised. A traditional staircase leading to the first floor opens to a polychrome vault and lavish gothic windows. A hall adjacent to Stadhuis opens to the city's history with impressive artwork and bona fide documents that make it a must-visit.
