The Journey
Egg Market

While smaller and less bustling than the main Markt square, it offers an intimate and authentic glimpse into Brugesian social life. Imagine yourself here, a glass of local beer or wine in hand, soaking in the convivial atmosphere as the square awakens with conversation and laughter – a perfect start to exploring the city's culinary delights.
St. John's Hospital
Step back in time at St. John's Hospital (Sint-Janshospitaal), one of Europe's oldest surviving hospital buildings. Founded in the mid-12th century, it served as a sanctuary for the sick, poor, and needy for over seven centuries. Today, it houses the Memling Museum, showcasing masterpieces by the Early Netherlandish painter Hans Memling, including the iconic 'Mystic Marriage of St Catherine'. Wander through the historic wards and chapel, imagining the lives of those who sought refuge within these walls, and discover a profound connection to Bruges' medieval past.
