Ergates The Ant Posted June 6, 2018 #1 Share Posted June 6, 2018 For anyone interested in military history... We visited a very interesting exhibition in the provincial courthouse in the Markt in the centre of Brugges. Lots of photos and artefacts from the St George's day battle in World War I. The building was used as headquarters by the German Navy, and U boats were based in the canals in Brugge and operated out of Zeebrugge. The temporary exhibition runs until August, costs 5€ each, clean restrooms etc! Website is http://www.vliz.be for information in English, opening times etc. there are posters outside for the "Battle for the North Sea" and it is right next to the Historium Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluecruisin Posted June 6, 2018 #2 Share Posted June 6, 2018 Thanks for the info. However, we will not be there until next May. Could you please help me with some info? Is there anything to do for an hour or two by the port? We are taking an excursion to Flanders and afterwards were wanting to check out some shops or cafe or bar. Thanks!!

Ergates The Ant Posted June 6, 2018 Author #3 Share Posted June 6, 2018 Sorry, can't help there. We got on a coach at the ship and straight back, so didn't see anything near the port. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
