The Gothic Hall in the Town Hall
The Town Hall of Bruges is one of the oldest town halls in the Low Countries that was completed in 1421. It served as a model for many other town halls. The Gothic room was created in its present form between 1895 and 1905 after a fire in 1887. Construction components also serve as decoration: medallions in the ‘gewelfsleutels’ with prophets and saints, murals with scenes from the history of Bruges and corbels with seasons and natural elements. In the historical room next door, you can discover the history of Bruges and the sea.
