Tips from locals
It was first constructed in the 12th century and promoted to the rank of Basilica in 1923. One can enter the church on the first floor where the Holy Blood is kept
This chapel contains a phial that reputedly contains Christ's blood brought back from the Crusades.
It has the relic of the holy blood and is free entrance it is in the corner of the Burg square.
This is one of my favourite churches in Bruges. The double church, dedicated to Our Lady and Saint Basil in the 12th century and a basilica since 1923, consists of a lower church that has maintained its Romanesque character and a neo-Gothic upper church, in which the relic of the Holy Blood is preserved.
