Self-paced museum where you can explore different historical scenes. Our kids enjoyed the interactive parts which were in some of the rooms and the garden, like weighing coffee and playing the throwing games. Has a bar and a nice courtyard to sit outside.

Great little museum, built in an old set of Alms Houses. Very interesting and educational with it's own cafe bar and some fun traditional games in the garden

Tolles Museum mit vielen Zimmer und einer kleinen Gaststätte, in der man zum Abschluss noch ein leckeres Bier trinken kann

Just lovely! A fantastic way to explore how people lived and worked in the previous centuries.

Quiet and beautifully maintained. This museum is full of interesting history of the local area and customs. There's lots of documentation to read and so much to see. It's very well maintained and has a lot of interactive exhibits for children. Unfortunately they don't have an audio guide available.

Very nice museum and ideal with kids. You can download the erfgoedapp and there are some stories for children to enjoy. The museum consist of several small houses each representing a story: a school, a shoemaker, a candy maker, a pharmacy, etc...

A secret gem of a museum. Highly recommend going with children because it contains several fun traditional games.

Lovely museum and a working bar inside. Tells you about life in the good ole days in Bruge, how people lived and worked and studied etc. There is a museum cat, though he was busy on the day we arrived. There is a bar/pub where you can purchase alcoholic and soft drinks, ice cream and crisps. We sat in the garden to enjoy our refreshments. It was a lovely experience and a pleasant way to spend the afternoon.

A walk through museum on the history of Brugge.

A must visit in Bruges. The museum is amazing as you get to see how the life used to be in Bruges. Don't miss the chance to get a drink at the 19th century style cafe.

Sehr kleines beschauliches museum. Eintritt 8€ Erwachsene Zurück in die Vergangenheit mit sehr guten Ausstellungen über Berufe. Anschließend ein muss in die alte Kneipe aus dem 19.jahrhundert Man bekommt ein Heft mit in seiner Landessprache mit Erklärungen zu den Ausstellungen.

Fun place! I saw one of my childhood toys behind glass, and now I feel very old 🌞

A nice little museum giving an insight into life in Bruges through the years. Well presented and thoughtful displays.

Very good museum. It is made up of a series of small themed rooms (classroom, tailor shop, etc.) with easy to read booklets and well displayed paraphernalia. A little bit outside of the crowded city center but worth the walk.

This place is pretty cool, but it’s A LOT. There is too much here to keep kids interested for very long, but the outside games were very fun. And playing with the cat, of course. How often do you need to see what a cobbler or a cooper or a tailor’s workshop looks like? It’s… fine? But it wasn’t enough to hold my interest very long.

Fantastic little museum and staff were so friendly. Well worth a visit.

Quirky little museum. Nice way to spend a couple of hours looking at the folklore of Belgium. It has a small pub in it with very good prices compared to bars in the Markt.

It was included on our museum pass so we went in while passing. Quite a lot to see. Probably wouldn't have gone on if we hadn't already bought the passes. Puppet section was creepy.

Very cute museum. Receptionist was lovely! Really appreciated the cool building and the cat on a hot, humid day :>

I visited here, in a group of 3 adults and was impressed. The museum is quiet and not one of the ‘main’ attractions but is well worth a visit. Entry is €7 per adult. There are 20 rooms all themed collections from schoolroom, grocery shop, pharmacy, witchcraft, shoe-makers, hat-makers, puppets, old style homes, old toys, barrel-making, clogs, art, and more, there are lots of activities for children. There are several retro wooden games to play for free in the garden. You receive a booklet in english with information for each room. Well worth a visit!

Is a place to be visited by all the tourist to have a real view how was life in Bruges in the former centuries. All items are real and the explanation tell you what was the use of every item that is showed there. After the visit you can enjoy a drink in the old cafe "De Zwarte Kat".

A real look back into Bruges past. Well laid out and most interesting. Well worth the short walk out from the centre. Take in the Jerusalem chapel after the museum.

This was a very relaxed museum. A wee man was making sweets, there were places to sit, low key and charming. It would be better if the signs had translations on them, or if the booklet was available to every visitor. My ither half took off with ours, and I like to learn about what I am looking at.

Super cute and well thought out museum with lots of information on living in Bruges throughout the years plus some fun old school games to play in the garden area. We went on a Friday mid morning and it was very quiet plus only €7 euro per person.
