The Stadhuis (town hall) in Brugge is the oldest in Belgium, built in the late 1300s, and is worth a stop to see the Gothic Room.
Admission is 2.50E, reduced to 1.50E with our hotel discount card, and included an audio guide in English (and several other languages) describing the various frescoes and celing ornamentation.
The exterior is covered with 49 replica statues, the bottom row is biblical figures and one lone knight, the top three rows feature rulers of Flanders up until the French period and Adam and Eve in a rather naughty pose. The original statues were taken down during the French Revolution and destroyed in 1792 in the public square, a 2nd set placed there in 1862 rapidly deteriorated so the statues you see are rather recent as the facade was only finished in 1989. When you tour the inside, they will give you a guide to some of the more notable statues on the exterior.
