The Gruuthuse Museum is one of Bruges' loveliest monuments. The building once served as a storage place for gruit - a herbal mixture used in beer-brewing - before the Gruuthuse family converted it in the early fifteenth century into a luxurious mansion, complete with oratory. This beautiful urban palace introduces you to the city's many stories, through an extensive collection of decorative art objects: lace, precious metalwork, furniture, ceramics and everyday household goods. The Gruuthuse Palace reopens this May after thorough and extensive renovation. To mark the occasion, Ludion is publishing this guide: an ideal companion for anyone interested in the rich history of Flanders and Bruges.
