Bruges - Prinselijk Beguijnhof ten Wijngaarde

 
Standing by the lockhouse there is a lovely view of the bridge over to the Béguinage. The Prinselijk Beguijnhof ten Wijngaarde, its white 17th C. houses grouped around a grassy, tree-shaded court, was founded in 1245 by Margaret of Constantinople. Today the Béguinage is the home of Benedictine nuns.
