This image was taken in the Fall of 2022 (October, 22th) in Bruges, Belgium.

The building on the right with the tower/steeple is the Huidenvettershuis (the Wiki-information is only available in the Dutch, French, and German language).

'Huidenvettershuis' stands for a guild house/meeting place for tanners (the guildsmen that were involved in tanning, a process in order to produce leather).

The guild house of the tanners was built in 1450 and refurbished in 1680 to its present state.

Nowadays it has a restaurant function.

It always amazes me that these old buildings are still standing and new buildings are torn down after a few decades. I'd like to have lunch there.

They sure did not hold back having made a place like this for a meeting house. A beauty Cornelius.

My thanks to all who leave comments for my work and to those of you who like one enough to make it a favourite. To touch just one person that way makes each image worthwhile. . . . . . . . . .. . . . "The question is not what you look at, but what you see" ~ Marcel Proust

Stunning capture. Your skills in photography are amazing, it is like I can almost step into the photograph. So much beauty in the buildings and the location is breathtaking.
