The very photogenic Bonifacius Bridge may be one of Bruges' youngest bridges, but it still perfectly summarizes the city. A mysterious atmosphere, romance in abundance and fabulous sights that compete for your attention. Staring at the canals and overhanging half-timbered houses. A magical place at any time of the day.

Bonifaciusbrug (Bonifaciusbridge)

The charismatic area of Bonifaciusbridge and Arentshof has the ability to enchant many a visitor. Its irresistible combination of striking history and warm romance may take your breath away. Arentshof, located along one of the picturesque canals, manages to create an entirely unique atmosphere with its tall trees, hidden benches, mysterious pieces of art and marvelous view on Church of Our Lady and Gruuthuse palace. It’s one of those places to watch the world go by: tourist boats pass and people wander around while the clatter of hoofs from the horse drawn carriages echoes throughout the day. Don’t be fooled further ahead, for the charmed ancient looking Bonifaciusbridge dates from early 20th century and is one of Bruges’ youngest bridges. While you admire the fairytale like canals with inclined houses and passing tourist boats a humble feeling will no doubt wash over you when looking up at the Church of Our Lady. In the evening carefully chosen illumination further enthralls this cherished lovespot.

The very photogenic Boniface Bridge may be one of the youngest bridges in Bruges, but it is emblematic of the whole city. A mysterious atmosphere, plenty of romance and fabulous views vying for your attention. Should you gaze at the small canals or jutting half-timbered houses, or rather tilt your head back to admire the stately Church of Our Lady or the neighboring Gruuthuse Palace? This is a must-see magical place at any hour. Nearby is the Gruuthuse Bridge with the white-painted house Arents - the only bridge in Bruges that has a building on it.
