Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Gruuthuse Museum is the largest complex of museums in Bruges and is located in the house which belonged to Van Gruuthuse Brugghe-van der Aa. It is situated behind the Our Lady's church.

It is a unique mansion, built in bourgeois Gothic style, contains a varied collection of carpets, coins, furniture, antiques, glass, weapons, silver, household objects, ceramics and musical and measuring instruments. It was formerly the Palace of the Lords of Gruuthuse.

This impressive city mansion belonged to one of the richest families of the medieval city. The name already explains why the Gruuthuse family was so important. The old Flemish word 'gruut' means : peeled barley or wheat. This was the main ingredient for beer-brewing in the Middle Ages. The lords of Bruges had the monopoly for the sale of this very important product.
