In the historical center of Bruges, you will find a large former ‘Beguinage’ with an old and interesting history. Today, you will be greeted by a courtyard with beautiful old white houses, and in the middle, a lawn with trees and flowers.
During the day, many tourists stroll the grounds, taking photos and delighting in the picturesque scenes. At 7:30 pm, however, the entrance gates close, and peace and quietness returns again for the residents and guests. Monasterium de Wijngaard presently houses an international community of Benedictine nuns from around the world.
