The Church of Our Lady, or Onze-Lieve-Vrouwekerk in Dutch, was built between the 13th and 15th centuries. Its spire is 115,5 m (379 ft) high, which makes it one of the highest brick towers in the world. Inside this church, you will find the world-famous Madonna and Child sculpture by Michelangelo. This is one of the few works of Michelangelo that can be found outside of Italy.

Located on Burg Square, the Basilica of the Holy Blood is a small building that can easily be overlooked. However, this is one of Belgium’s most spectacular churches! This basilica consists of two levels. On the lower level, you will find a Romanesque chapel, and the upper level houses a Gothic chapel.

Constructed in the 13th century, the Belfry of Bruges has been the symbol of Bruges for centuries. This medieval bell tower can be found on Market Square, Bruges’ main square. In the olden days, the Belfry was used as an archive and treasury as well as an observation post to spot fires and other dangers.
