This hospital was first mentioned in records dating back to the 13th century, when the nuns cared for pilgrims, travellers and the sick here. Nowadays, the historic infirmary and convent are home to numerous works of art, religious artefacts and medical instruments from many centuries of care. The adjacent church, with its Baroque interior, is also worth a visit. On the altar stands a 13th-century ‘miracle’ statue, one of the oldest in Bruges.
