Bruges and the sea: brand new display at City Hall

24 November 2022

In the historical room of City Hall, you can discover the history of Bruges and the sea. That topic was not chosen by chance. After all, Bruges owes its prosperity and wealth to its connection to the North Sea. Although the relationship with the sea ran pretty turbulent at times.

For centuries, the city had to fight. To protect itself from the water, or just to keep the connection with the sea open. An augmented reality model and various archaeological and art objects bring this history to life.
