Koninklijke hoofdgilde van Sint-Sebastiaan, Historic guild house in Brugge, Belgium.

The Royal Guild of Saint-Sebastian occupies a medieval building in Carmersstraat, featuring traditional Flemish architecture with stepped gable and ornate stone details.

Founded around 1375, this guild house became the permanent residence of the archers' association in 1573, maintaining continuous operations for over six centuries.

The building houses an extensive collection of archery artifacts, historical documents, and guild memorabilia, documenting centuries of Belgian archery traditions.

Members gather weekly on Monday evenings to practice longbow archery and participate in traditional ceremonies within the guild's dedicated shooting range.

The guild maintains an archive dating back to 1416, containing manuscripts and records that form one of the oldest continuous documentary collections in Belgium.
