Mission

The Historium aims to fill a gap in the tourism offering of the city of Bruges: a unique, top-tier historical attraction where visitors are immersed in the city’s rich history. It is an experience-oriented journey where modern visitors feel at home amidst rapidly evolving multimedia. In short, a museum 2.0. We are entertainers of the history of Bruges in the Middle Ages.

The multimedia setup of the Historium emphasizes a high experiential value and makes it accessible to everyone. New, rapidly evolving media have become an integral part of our society and, in our view, represent the future of tourism. Modern technology helps us spark interest in the history of Bruges and is complementary to the further exploration of our beautiful city, its museums, and its heritage.

In everything we do, we strive to be entertaining, educational, immersive, and historically accurate.
