Volkskundemuseum (Folklore Museum)

What was life like in the 19th and early 20th centuries in Bruges? In the restored workmen's cottages of the Folklore Museum, you can experience it for a moment. Go to the classroom, look inside the tailor's workshop or see how the people of Bruges did their shopping back then, from the pharmacist, the confectioner and the grocer. Temporary exhibitions are being held on the upper floor of the cottages. In the cosy courtyard, folk games get the ambiance going. And then there is the candy-maker, who brings sweet smells to the museum every 1st and 3rd Thursday of the month.
