Saint Boniface Bridge

This point of interest is available as audio on the tour: Visit Bruges, A Gentle Journey into Flanders
It may not be big or grand, but there’s something comforting about this little corner of Bruges. Modest in size yet full of charm, this spot has become a must-see—thanks to the small stone bridge that arches over the canal. Saint Boniface Bridge is one of the youngest bridges in Bruges, built in the early 20th century. It rises just two metres above the water. In case you were wondering—yes, boats can pass underneath. It just takes a steady hand and a bit of skill to glide through the middle. With its pointed arch and blend of stone and brick, the bridge captures that mysterious, romantic atmosphere that defines Bruges so well. Stand at the top, and you’ll find your eyes pulled in every direction. Every angle looks like a perfect photo waiting to happen. There are views over the canal, the historic buildings, and everything else that make this place so special. This spot always feels magical, no matter the time of day… It’s one of those places you just have to experience for yourself.
