Fort Lapin, 19th century fortification in Bruges, Belgium
Fort Lapin stands as a defensive structure near the edge of the historic center of Bruges, featuring original military architecture and thick stone walls.
The fort was constructed during the 19th century as an integral component of Bruges' defense system, designed to protect the city from potential invasions.
The fort now houses a brewery that produces traditional Belgian beers, maintaining the centuries-old brewing traditions of the Bruges region.
The beer shop welcomes visitors from Tuesday to Friday between 14:00 and 18:00, and on Saturdays from 10:00 to 18:00, with guided tours available.
Within the fort's historic walls, visitors can explore both military heritage and contemporary brewing processes in the same location.
