Really enjoyed the interactive nature of the Historium. The Virtual Reality experience was a fun addition that made you feel like you were actually sailing into the old port. Also, the view from the Historium Tower is one of the best spots to see the whole Market Square. Great value for the full experience.

Finally, I made it to Bruges! This magical little town has been on my bucket list forever, and being there felt like stepping into a fairytale. The cobblestone streets, charming canals, and storybook buildings were even more beautiful in person.

A top place to visit when in Bruges, great for families, couples and individuals alike. The facility and concept is just fantastic and is executed with precision. Take a moment, whilst on the tourist trail, to step I side this venue and learn about the historical Bruges and what an economical and political centre it was in the middle ages. Great staff, the VR part is a part you will not want to ...

The VR experience is a real highlight — flying over historical Bruges was ...

It was a pleasant experience that started with a virtual reality show (I highly recommend it). It is not a museum per se but rather an educational history spot. It is entertaining with lots of videos to watch as you walk through the various "rooms" telling the story. The bar in the historium has a very nice patio to enjoy a beer or two!
