Groeningemuseum

The Groeningemuseum in Bruges houses one of the most important collections of Flemish and Belgian painting in the world. The collection spans six centuries of art history, from the Flemish Primitives to contemporary art. Absolute highlights include the works of Jan van Eyck, among them the famous Virgin and Child with Canon Joris van der Paele, as well as masterpieces by Hans Memling, Hieronymus Bosch, Gerard David and later Belgian artists such as James Ensor and Constant Permeke.

The museum is fully accessible to wheelchair users. All exhibition rooms are step-free and the museum has a push wheelchair available for free loan at reception. Companions of visitors with a disability receive free admission. The museum corridors are wide enough for a comfortable visit and adapted toilets are provided. The museum is climate-controlled, making a visit pleasant in both warm and cold weather.

The Groeningemuseum is located in the historic centre of Bruges, within walking distance of the Markt and the Belfry. PMR parking spaces are available in the nearby 't Zand underground car park. From Bruges railway station, the museum can be reached via a largely flat route through the city centre. The museum is open from Tuesday to Sunday and is a must for any art lover visiting Bruges.
