"Pulchra sunt oppida Gandavum, Antwerpia, Lovanium et
Mechlinia, sed nihil ad Brugas"

(Adrianus Barlandus)

Barlandus, author, philosopher, historian, professor and publisher of the 16th century already knew it: Bruges is wonderful. This urban beauty is the commitment and concern of the City of Bruges and all its inhabitants. Brugge Foundation seeks cooperation with partners who believe in the socially responsible reuse of valuable heritage.

Bruges is a very serious matter for the Bruges man, the city pride is incredibly large. In 2015, 7.8 million visitors proved that those people of Bruges have every reason to be proud. The city's past is its future, this is also the city council's conviction. To preserve the immovable heritage alive for residents, local residents and visitors, we will have to make joint efforts. The city of Bruges is leading the way and providing the 'seed money' giving Bruges Foundation a running start.

The redevelopment of the Godelieve Abbey is only possible with close cooperation between the city and the Bruges Foundation. a user agreement for the site was finally reached in July 2017 and the city supported the Bruges Foundation with a start-up grant to help pay for, among other things, a master plan for the site, maintenance of the gardens, and start-up costs for the Godelieve project.

The West Flanders Regional Fund connects and strengthens local donors and local associations that are committed to the community and contribute to the common good.

In doing so, the Streekfonds aims to leverage and facilitate social engagement and local philanthropy in West Flanders, with a focus on equal opportunities, diversity and solidarity. By bringing together ideas, people and resources, we want to work towards a better society for all. Initiatives that promote opportunities for (socially vulnerable) children and young people receive special attention.

The Streekfonds (Central and South) West Flanders was established in 2001 in the lap of the King Baudouin Foundation.

The Guides with a Heart are a group of official city guides, who graduated together in February 2017 from the Spermalie in Bruges (grade 8). They organise an annual benefit walk to benefit Bruges' rich heritage. In August 2024, the proceeds of the 'Beguinage' benefit walk went entirely to the restoration of the statue of St Elisabeth in the façade of the beguinage church.

Then the association BRUGES BUITEN BRUGGE is for you !

The Heritage Agency is an agency and scientific institution of the Flemish government. We are responsible for architectural, archaeological, landscape and sailing heritage. Together with our partners, we help shape and colour Flanders now and in the future by making caring for our immovable heritage a matter of course for everyone.

We prepare and implement heritage policy in Flanders. We inventory and protect buildings, landscapes, archaeological sites and sailing heritage. Furthermore, we support citizens, local authorities, designers, developers and other bodies with advice and grants. Finally, we promote the quality of our approach to immovable heritage, with thorough policy-oriented research and targeted communication. This is how we support the Flemish Minister of Immovable Heritage.

Together with our daily ambassadors, we ensure that real estate heritage is a matter of and for everyone. Here, cities and municipalities are our partner of choice to communicate and translate immovable heritage policy to citizens. We maintain close relations with other policy areas such as tourism, spatial planning, arts and heritage, nature, education, etc. In addition, we subsidise a number of structural heritage partners. These associations and volunteers put heritage on the map every day.

The Heritage Department wants to valorise the heritage in the province of West Flanders and support heritage owners and managers in preserving this fascinating heritage. Moreover, the service wants to stimulate the opening up and perception of this heritage and encourage all kinds of target groups to discover our West Flemish past.
