Musea Brugge's collection comprises over 80,000 unique works of art and heritage objects. It is our pleasure to display them to as many enthusiasts as possible. This is why make our works and objects available for loan for exhibitions in other museums and art institutions. A loan request is, of course, subject to a number of conditions.
Musea Brugge is currently in the process of moving premises. All prints and works on paper from the Print Room will be registered, photographed and packed for the move to the new depot at BRUSK. Due to these preparations and the move, our works from the Print Room are temporarily unavailable for loan.
From 1 August 2025 to 30 March 2027, loans from the Print Room will not be available to external parties.
Requests received before 1 August 2025 will be processed. We will keep aside items already committed for loan so they can still be loaned out. We will begin processing loan requests for the Print Room again from 31 March 2027.
