Groeningemuseum, Art museum in Bruges, Belgium.

The Groeningemuseum displays six centuries of Belgian and Dutch art history through paintings, sculptures, and other visual artworks in chronological exhibition spaces.

The museum, which opened in 1930 in a building designed by architect Joseph Viérin, started its collection during the early eighteenth century.

The museum holds works by Flemish Primitives including Jan van Eyck's Madonna of Canon van der Paele from 1436 and Hans Memling's Moreel Triptych.

The museum opens daily from 9:30 to 17:00, with admission fees of 12 euros for adults and 10 euros for students and seniors.
