ST. SALVATORE'S CATHEDRAL
St. Saviour's Cathedral in Bruges, the oldest church in the city, with many works of art.
This is the oldest of the town's parish churches. Within its walls, in 1478, the Knights of the Golden Fleece met to establish the succession of Charles the Bold, Duke of Burgundy. He confirmed his daughter Marie as the new duchess, who would become the beloved of the people of Bruges. The church became the seat of the bishopric of Bruges after the destruction of Saint-Donatien Cathedral during the French revolutionary occupation in 1799. Don't miss a visit to the Treasury, which houses some of the finest paintings by Dirk Bouts and others.
