20 reasons to visit Bruges - 4° (Groeninge museum)

Groeninge Museum - Flemish Primitives' artwork

In the 15th century, Bruges was an attractive place for prominent artists to take up residence, with volumes of work being commissioned by the church and wealthy citizens.
The Groeninge Museum has a comprehensive collection of the Flemisch Primitives' artwork, which was characterised by detailed realism and expert use of oil techniques.
Today more than 200 works from the 15th century to the modern day hang in 11 galeries.  Certainly worth a visit!
