My Account Major piece of World Heritage in Bruges : dedicated to religious life, the iconic Princely Beguinage Ten Wijngaerd founded in 1245
(Browse the collection : Bruges cityscape time lapse and video stock footage)
The ‘Princely Beguinage Ten Wijngaarde’ with its white-coloured house fronts and tranquil convent garden was founded in 1245. This little piece of world heritage was once the home of the beguines, emancipated lay-women who nevertheless led a pious and celibate life.
A place of liberation and beauty, a visit to the Beguinage provides unique insight into 17th century living and an understanding of equality and the pursuit of a resolute life.
With its white buildings and stepped, red-tiled roofs, its grassy courtyard planted with drifts of white daffodils and narcissus, Bruges’ Beguinage of the Vineyard is certainly the most famous and often-visited beguinage.
