Visita Iglesia the Brugge Way

One of the things I did while in Brugge was to visit churches and there were lots of them. Hence, the trip also turned into a Visita Iglesia.

St. Salvator's Cathedral


This is the first church you'll see coming from the train station and it's close to the city center.


















Church of Our Lady

It is the tallest structure in Brugge. On the altar is a sculpture of Madonna and Child by Michaelangelo.










Basilica of the Holy Blood

This is where you'll find the phial supposedly containing the cloth with the blood of Christ that was saved by Joseph of Arimathea. The Holy Blood Chapel is where the veneration of the Holy Blood takes place while below it is the Chapel of St. Basil.

Thank you for visiting Traipsing Chronicles. I hope you will continue walking with me as I wander and see the world. Cheers!
