Lonely Planet review for Kantcentrum
In the residential St-Anna quarter, Bruges’ lace centre resides within a beautifully preserved almshouse. These terraced properties were built by merchant guilds for their members and by wealthy philanthropists for the poor and elderly. During the afternoon, you’re welcome to watch informal gatherings of women making traditional bobbin lace in the small backroom. A small collection of traditional lace is displayed at the on-site museum.
