Lonely Planet review for Diamantmuseum

The slick Diamantmuseum reveals Bruges' medieval role as the first diamond-polishing centre. It's home to the world's two smallest diamond sculptures - tiny profiles of the former King Baudouin and Queen Fabiola, each no more than 3mm in diameter. Even with the aid of a magnifying glass, it takes a sizable imagination to pick the resemblance. Diamond-polishing demonstrations are held at 12:15, and cost an extra around €3.
